The heat

[latemodelman]

I work in a factory and it gets hot and humid no air conditioning. So anyway after a 9 or 10 hour day I push mow my yard and work outside so I never not go to a race I want to do to heat. I have never seen a race cancelled either. I have seen start times pushed back from 6p.m. hotlaps to 6:30 hotlaps and heats at 8p.m. though.

There was a bunch of tracks in the Midwest 2 years ago that cancelled due to high heat

When i use to work at Riverbend Nuke plant. I use to Cad weld they get to 6000 De in 6 sec i use to lose 10 pounds a day in La. When it was 105 in the shade. But i loved that job.

I think any promoter that cancels using heat as a reason isn't so much concerned about fans or drivers safety as they are about people not coming to sit in the stands.

Your hardcore every week fan will be there. You can always count on them. But your casual 2,3,4 times a year fan probably won't be there.

Tri City Granite IL has cancelled due to heat.

Just saw on the Indy news that it will feel like 109 tomorrow at 7:30 pm in Terre Haute. Hot laps at 7. I plan to be there.

Some of the older people and hot natured people can't handle that kind of heat and humidity. Somebody usually leaves in the ambulance.

Some people are hot in the winter. Go figure!!

I have been at Needmore when the actual temp was above 100. No heat index stuff. It was miserable, but we raced.

Yep.....I worked in that area several years ago.

It gets super hot around them cotton and bean fields!

My son turns 42 tomorrow and we'll be at Chico and it's going to be about 102...and that's genuine 102, not that index stuff. His birthday he drives. Me, I look back with fondness to the T shirt and open face helmet days this time of year.

Being from Ms I'll take the heat any day over the cold temps only time I want cold weather is during deer season but come first day of February I'm ready for things to start warming up.

No interest to sit in this heat for a regular show.
