I tried to get to Georgetown 2006 June 11
On Friday, June 9, 2006 I decided to try to beat the weather report and drove down to Georgetown Speedway to see a race at the re-opened Georgetown Speedway. The chance if rain was about 40% but the radar made it look like a little better bet then that. I did hit a little rain while still in New Jersey, but the ride through Delaware saw no rain. However, when I got about 10 miles from the rack I saw a racecar going the other way. I was hoping that was an abnormality, but about 5 miles later I saw too more and knew I was in trouble. I drove to the track anyway just to take a look at it an what I saw was mud soup for a track surface as apparently they had a downpour just before I got there. However, the facility looked pretty nice and I’ll have to try again next time. I did get to go to Waffle House, so I guess it wasn’t a complete waste although driving 5.5 hours to eat a Texas Cheesesteak and hashbrowns is probably not a worthwhile endeavor.
