Actually, it rained at our last race. Not all day, but off and on. It keeps the pilots from overheating.

Not this much.

Saturday: Windy...showers and thundershowers in the morning, then cloudy with rain in the afternoon...perhaps a rumble of thunder as well. High 71F. Winds S at 15 to 25 mph. Chance of rain 70%.
Sunday: Rain and wind with a few rumbles of thunder. Highs in the low 70s and lows in the mid 40s.

Do you left coast guys even know what thunder is???

It's so dry out there your lakes dry up in summertime! Yeah, I've been to Victorville and flown at Rabbit.

Sounds like the first Kingman race I attended. It rained all day and the wind was so strong, the left side of your body was soaked and the right side was dry. Of course, these were warbirds. Designed to battle the elements.
