I am starting to see a little blue sky and a little sunshine out my window here in Louisville. Also, the puddles in the parking lot are starting to dry up. I think the rain is supposed to come back by morning.

Just throwing that out there in case they do run her ... and if they do run her ... the great Mikey (!) ... he'll still get a pass from even the most deranged of internet jockey bashers if she gets beats... because of the wet track.

This would all be moot if CD caught up with the times and put in a synthetic all weather surface in.
