The main reason we stayed in Carbondale - Southern IL was because the weather was not looking good last night in Elkhart, IN. They were calling for hail and tornadoes throughout the area. We got an update from Race Central last night that all planes have been put into hangers and were safe.
We also had a question about when the timing line in Frederick. Our timing paperwork from ARC only showed when the timing line closes in MD on Friday (5pm). It did not show when it closed today. So after some phone calls last night and talking to some folks at dinner (we were not the only ones that stayed in Carbondale) the web site was updated and the timing line closes today @ 8:41pm. That should give us enough time to get there as long as the weather holds out and our stops at Elkhart and Parkersburg are not longer than 1-1/2.
We are watching the Carbondale morning news and they just showed the Air Race Classic and had a story about the race. This has been happening all along the way. The Southern IL girls were interviewed but I am not sure if it was for the local news or their college news.
As one of our well wishers said...."Throttle to the Firewall".
