Default Great Weather and Killer Track Prep for WCF on Nov 6-7!

Great weather forecast for the 15th annual U.S. Army World Cup Finals at MIR on Nov 6-7!

It is going to be one fast weekend! We are going to have the traction on lock this weekend! I am going to put down so much VHT it will blow your mind. I have loads of barrells of VHT in stock and will use pallets of it for next weekend! Everyone will run their personal bests if their car is right! The weather gods will be cooperating with nice cool dry weather, so we are going to do our part with the track! Everyone that has been to MIR before knows what I am talking about... You wont be able to walk on the starting line it will be so sticky! Time them shoe laces on tight boys and girls! Hell Yeah!

Great Forecast, Records will go down!


Tons of VHT in stock and we arent afraid to use it at MIR!

I remember like 6 or 7 years ago it was in the low 20s at night for the race. Ice was forming on top of the cars.

I really can't wait for the event as always. Be the first time for me going to a track all year. Can't wait to watch some great racing.

It will get around 40 at night, but Saturday of the race will be over at 7pm. It gets dark here at 6:30pm. So it wont be bad at all Saturday night.

Then Saturday night, time gets set back 1 hour for Daylight Savings Time, so we will all get one hour more sleep over Saturday night, thats really cool.

This year with even more staffing we will be on schedule on Sunday and I plan on having all the heads-up and index classes done by 6:30pm at the lastest, and the bracket classes should be done close to that also or maybe 7:30.

All I can stress, is GET TO THE TRACK EARLY each day please.

We have TONS of staff: 4 starting line officials, 6 spotters, 4 Army push crew for broke cars, 6 shut down spotters, 4 staging lane officials, 14 tech inspectors, 3 tower personnell, 10 security guards, 11 ticket gate staff, 14 restroom attendants, 2 announcers, 9 car show judges, 14 spectator parking crew, 4 racecar parkers, 3 event girls, 2 fuel station attendants, 30 concession employees, 6 maintenance crew, countless PAs, and I know I am missing a bunch more...

We are doing our part to get tons of cars down the track and have fast clean-ups. All to get you more track time when you come to MIR.

Thats over 100 employees off the top of my head.
