Default Richmond Dragway rain date

I stayed until the announcement. Rain date is set for Oct 31st (yeah, Halloween). Bring in that little ticket stub if you want to race. No cash refunds were given to street classes.

I'm glad you posted this dude. I almost threw away that little ticket.

Rode from the beach and got rained on the whole ride home. What fun.

Only got one run in before the downpour.

Worst run of all time. 14.8. Nearly came to a stop to shift into 2nd using two hands. Dropped to 3k rpm to shift into 3rd, dropped to 4k rpm into 4th. Tranny is tempermental and often does not let me shift into gear. Happens at all temp ranges, all rpm/torque ranges as well. Fustrated.

Fearing that the synchros in my Tremec TKO are busted. Will swap out the tranny fluid as a cheap checklist item first, though. Sucks. Just got the car back last night with a new clutch. Clutch held fine but still breaking it in.

What a friggin' waste.
