Typical! In the middle of a frikkin' drought, water restrictions abound, the very first time I plan on dragging my arse to the new WSID track, I get a call from a mate who's just got his car through scrutineering only to hear the announcement that the night is cancelled due to the rain.
I can understand bikes not drag racing in the rain, kinda. [I've had wheelspin on the Newcastle Freeway at 180km/h in the wet] But I've never seen anyone fall out of their car when things get a little hairy. It's only street cars for Christ's sake, not Top Fuellers, Funnycars & Doorslammers! So, the times won't be up there...or should that be "down" there? ALL other forms of motorsport still go on when its a little bit wet. Half the cars out there were probably AWD's like WRX's & the like anyhow.
Oh well, shit happens. Looks like the guys from the car club are keen to try again on the 27th. Might see you guys there then, ay? Wazza.
I've stared death in the face....he turned and walked away.<i></i>
