Where is Jackie, Josh Rubenstein does not float my boat especially in lake Fontana---

El Nino years are really great for the TT (titty tilt) by Jackie, the lows bringing in moisture from the south promotes a larger view of the hills to her north....

I keep hearing that Mountains and Foothills are going to see 2 inches in 24 hours. Not build the ark time, but if the catch basins and such are still full, could cause issues.

I think Jackie looks like a fine scientist.....

Did Don really say Titty Tilt?

Oversteer is better than understeer because you don't see the tree you're hitting.

Sure you can find bits and pieces of them all over the canyons, especially when they under steer into a Ford Gigantor.

All depends on what site you go to. Percentage chance varies a lot. One says "slight" chance on Sunday. Most say no rain until late afternoon now on Saturday.
Since light is faster than sound...many people look bright until they speak...

It could end up being perfect on Saturday. Run half day in the dry then experience driving in increasing wetness, all without flooding. That's a perfect practice mix.

On Sunday I hope to run early then run x runs later to experience the new car setup on in both wet and dry. That's the ideal plan.... Clouds have to cooperate. I hope they aren't union clouds.
