Today we got hit with the aftermath of an earthquake. But now we have a tornado warning, which we have been having a TON of storms ever since that big one rolled in about a month ago. Anyone in Michigan knows what I'm talking about, I've never seen the weather like this so often and bad. We don't have enough room in the garage for all of our cars so we are taking a gamble with some being outside. The weather has been really freaky this year.

Pack your bags fabio, you would love this weather were having here. You can come camp outside and go storm chasing as long as you let me take your HeRo car out for a spin. Razz Laughing

They just told us if the power goes out we need to have the generators running OUTSIDE. You cannot keep them inside. What a moron, But some people might try that.

Idiots are among us. Several years back when we had out ice storm, a few people tried putting them in the garage and running them, so they wouldn't get stolen. Didnt' work that way either. Evil or Very Mad

At the last HS nationals I raced at my dad was talking to the woman at the Lincoln Welding booth. She said she lives in Milan. She said "for what ever reason, sometimes the storm seems to just go right around Milan". The way she talked about it was the weirdest thing like someone from up above is keeping their eye out for the track. Strange how things turn out like that sometimes, but it could be the pollution gathered up in the sky from all the races. Laughing

We got hit again and again and again at the one HS nationals. They must have dried the track off 5 times then they said forget it everyone go home and we'll give you a ticket for another event. It was a sprinkle that was just enough so that we couldn't race.

We had tornado warnings just south of here most of the day. That would be down by Windsor/Detroit.

Had some very heavy rains for about 15 minutes each. Real muggy now.

Cool front came through today, mid 80's feel awsome........

And yes the heat index has been 103-110 for the last few weeks. Makes it tough, even with the races at night you get out of the a/c in the trailer and put the fiesuit on its instant sweat.......... Wish I was doing it right now.....its pretty much my favorite place to be......... Strapped into my shitbox makng a pass...........
