Crap. Tonight's re-opening of Irwindale has been cancelled due to weather.

The weather is pretty much over, isn't it? Maybe they think the turnout wouldn't be worth it.

Maybe it's still kinda wet up near the mountains, I don't know. Hasn't rained here since early this morning. The re-opening was played up pretty big online, so I think there was a good expectation of a large turn out. Could be they just decided to move it up a week rather than spend money running the equipment to dry out the track.

It's a different track, West of where the old one was...built in the early 90's.

Still ticks me off that Irwindale, OC, AND Lions all had to die.
I understand why but for cripes sake, this is the mecca of all that goes straight.
