    OK, the weather reports are coming in (but who knows how accurate??) It is forecast to be high of 69 degrees F and mostly cloudy. Hmmm. Not much of an issue this year, is it (except for spectator comfort)? Might not be as soggy as it was last year. Jim

    Thanks for the FYI there Jim. I cannot wait till i get out there Thursday evening. With the temps of 69 degrees i just might have to bring a parka since it has been 100 + for well over a week here in the valley of the sun.

    Let me tell you. I live in Indy and they can't get the weather right a few hours out let alone a week and a half in advance. Maybe start paying attention to the reports the friday before the race. Before that anyone on this board has a reasonable chance of guessing it right...........Here I'll take a shot at it right now. I will say partly cloudy with a high of 78 and a slight chance of showers.

    I'm with you, pizzadude! In Chicago, we hardly look at a forecast for tomorrow, let alone 10 days from now!

    Hey guys,
    At the risk of sounding like a horedogpig (as my wife calls me), I hope it is just a little on the warm side. I can not wait to see the ladies outfits from Brazil and Columbia! Oh, and also the SpeedChannel girls!!!! Hubba! Hubba!

    Your resident pig,
    Jim

    OK, its been a bit soggy here, but the weather forecast is looking up...partly sunny and 81 degrees for start. (Rain should stop soon.)

    As for my car, yes, it will be at the Circle and race activities. I have a new Momo wheel, and just clad it with a new set of Pirellis and hope to have the wheels shined, but I am low on time as I am getting married on June 26 (then off to Italy for honeymoon).

    See ya all at the Legion!

    Longer than the uphill climb at Spa?

    Well, as I always said, the Indy turn #1 part is cool, it is the infield that is ridiculous.

    PS: The first USGP I'm "watching" from the office...
