I'll let you guys know later in the week if I can make it Friday. Hopefully I figure out how to switch to map5.

You'll be at Atco Friday night? I was planning on going in the morning. Gates open at 9:00 AM and run until 4:30 for the day session.

Yes I wasn't 100% sure when everyone was going (have to work till 6pm) and since I made it last Saturday morning I got to see it was a nice place to go even on the weekends.

I probably won't be there for the night session. It looks like the weather will be so nice during the day, I'd like to make a few runs in the daylight hours.

It's supposed to rain Saturday morning, so I'm not sure Atco will be open. I'd rather go on Friday during the day, which is supposed to be beautiful. Just my $0.02.

You're right just seeing that too
Wish I could make it Friday morning

Update: No rain in the morning, it has moved into the day time

mge92 · 11-25-2015, 11:34 AM

I will be there friday during the morning and early afternoon.

$35 for Day vs $20 Evening lol

And the day runners have to pay extra $10 if they want to run after 4pm.

Cooler weather in the evening = better times

Update::: Good News, I don't work Friday anymore

True, it is cheaper and cooler for the night session, but not enough of a difference for me to run Friday night. Friday morning should be cool and hopefully not crowded. So, you going Friday AM or PM?

I think I'm going to pass on tomorrow. I have too much to do this weekend.

mge92 · 11-26-2015, 06:46 PM

Anyone still planning to go?

FSociety · 11-26-2015, 11:40 PM

I could do Friday evening or Saturday morning (since rain is canceled)
Whatever the majority of the vote is and if you update the other forum sections maybe get some more ppl from other sections too.

I can't go this weekend, and I'm probably putting my winter wheels/tires on next week, so no more drag racing this year.

ilyabarankevich · 12-11-2015, 07:36 PM

Winters grip way better then summer tires. Especially in the warm 60 degree weather!!
