Rae's Update on the Rally

I'm gonna make it if it's at the track in TX, definately not in the summer months, September would probably be perfect.

How cold does it get in texas? Because it would be fuckin awesome if we could do one in December without it being too cold.

Well, the definition of *cold* is subjective. December might be perfect, though I need to check on a few logistics with the track. Most tracks here are closed December and January. Even February is unpredictable weather-wise. Even April can throw a loop - last year it SNOWED on my wedding day (after renting the track in Dallas for the day, it was unprecedented).

It was about 100 degrees yesterday at my event. It's been that way for at least a month. See, the difference with the weather... everywhere else record highs and record lows are displayed. HERE, it's the record number of days over 100 in a row. Sounds like hell, huh? It's just something we get used to maybe??

Best way to do this is probably a point person here to work with me on logistics. I mean, I love the forum and all... but I don't care for conducting business in this way

yeah I think Trip if he has the time.... would be the obvious person to set it up...

December would be fuck'n cool for a track day... perfect to break up the cabin feaver!

if no trip can't do it... and no one else steps up... I'm willing to be the POC for this Azoom

In what way?

t-homo · 06-11-2008, 12:05 AM

What are the average lows in like mid december? I want to get this to land after finals but before christmas, or like the weekend after the first. Because everyone wont want to spend money for it before chirstmas, but after maybe it wont be quite as bad.

nov-dec get kinda busy with other holidays and such tho.

I think april or sept would be good.

I know TX gets hot, I spent 4 months there in the middle of summer, but it also gets cold as fuck, cold enough to snow a little bit. This is where I've been anyway. But if it gets up to 115 here in Vegas and down to 40-50 in December, I'm not going to waste my time and drive way out there only to freeze my ass off. The absolute latest would be End of October, maybe early November.
