At least the weather here on the west side of the Rockies has become springlike... ya don’t have to shovel rain!
Things are looking up!

I sometimes wonder if we should pat you on the back like our crazy uncle in the attic and say, why yes, Tork, well done.
Got it.
Thanks for hosting this weeks NASCAR thread!
I’m not sure what Atlanta is like but Tallahassee has upcoming freeze warnings. Should be a chilly track and great weather for fans.
