As of now, it's still on. We've learned to never cancel until the very last minute and only if absolutely necessary. Feel free to call the IFO voice mail on the morning of for event status, 225-247-RACE (7223). It'll be updated regularly.

Re: Import Face-Off: Tucson, AZ - 2/8/09
I worked my *** off all week long on my car and tuning other cars for this event, and the weather isn't looking good.. If I wake up early Sunday morning and it's raining in Tucson, (with a 60% chance of rain currently), there are probably 4-5 SFWD cars that won't be making the drive from Phoenix.. Any plans for a reschedule in the near future if it gets rained out?

Well me and 3 other guys are down in Green Valley from Winnipeg.. A big part of our trip was to watch this event. I hope it don't get reined out. At least we had a good time on the shifter cart at P1kart

Hope it gets rescheduled if it rains. Need more races out in the West as much as possible. 1st week of February is kinda early to have a race out here anyways. This is rain season out here. If they have it March or later, would be a better turnout. More people would be ready to race.

Event officially cancelled.. 
We've been sitting at the shop since 6am watching the weather.. Oh well, at least a lot of cars run now.

Rain in AZ? Sounds like snow in Guam. Maybe it's not too late to get a make-up event in the works since it's still early in the season and considering that it's the only far west event on the agenda. Just a suggestion.

Yeah, thats true. We would have brought at least half of the sfwd field with the cars that we have ready right now, hopefully it gets rescheduled soon, cause we can get 7 more cars ready by next week . . . just as long as you have time to tune em Joey

Yes, sorry everyone. Event has been canceled due to the weather.
Not sure about a reschedule date yet, but at least definitely the same weekend in 2010.
