Good call, sometimes you just have to work with nature, especially this year with a record-breaking snow pack. The upper Colorado River basin snow pack is more than 200% of the 30 year average.

Touché Scrub! Well at least southwest lets you switch flights around pretty easily. Opens up going to the Indy 500!

That's why back in the day promoters didn't have races at ski resorts on the west coast before July. It's like Murphy's law is correcting all of this years schedule conflicts in the name of snow. I love it! All the races are getting just spread out juuuuuust enough that we can afford to go to more of them. Oh yeah and Scrub wins the "proper way to softly flame another thread award". HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

I hope this doesn't interfere with Moto GP, NASCAR, NHRA, F1 or any other scheduled event on TV...LOL. Looks like the snow has hit heavy this year for us wanting to race.
