Have talked to Palmy Speedway office, they reckon rains meant to clear at 1pm maybe getting helicopters in to dry the track. Worst case senario may hold racing off for an 8pm start.

Mint in welly, and its taken a while to get here (to being awesome). I rekon its going to be all good - travel with confidence, it will be an awesome meeting!
Just hope the pack the track before the first couple of races, nothing worse than a greasy teams surface.

Still the odd shower, just enough to keep things from drying out. Going to head down to the square now and see what's happening, so no more info from me for now. Fingers crossed.

Another heavyish shower just started. I really feel for any travellers - do we go, do we wait, what's gonna happen? It's easy for us locals, although frustrating. Got my ears pinned to the radio so as soon as any announcements are made I'll post as quickly as I can. Don't know what's happening as far as scrutineering in the square goes, I'll also let you know if I hear anything about it. scrutineering is still on. im sitting at a cxfe on the square looking over towards them. the caravan is all set up and it looks like the scales are too. no stockies as yet though. currently light drizzle and a light breeze |
