man,don't you know-30% chance of scattered thrunderstorms is the forcast EVERY day up here during the summer!every morning before i go to work i watch the Weather Channel,and unless there's a big system causing prolonged rain/storms it's always the same 30% chance of scattered storms.rarely does it ever actually rain......it'll be okay

Mid-upper 80s in this part of the world in July is just dandy. It could be 100. Easily. I did a day at VIR 2 summer ago at 102 F. Life sucked.

Matt<---waved flags at CMP once when it was 107. I know me some hot...

I agree. Temps are predicted to be better than they could be, and rain chances are also failry low.

Sorry, already promised to Terry in exchange for mounting the new ones.

The Marx'es have a set with similar wear they're letting go for cheap... want me to ask?

Screw that, VIR Grid doesn't have cover like Summit does. Hopefully I can borrow an E Z Up from someone if it starts to rain.

Ooo! Ooo! Then could you walk around until you find the black SE-R with RKT in its license plate?

Better yet, why don't you just have an announcement and an IT2 rulebook signing?

Should I be worried? Maybe I should just hide in RJ's motorcoach and watch SPEED on the sat TV...
