Stay safe. It appears this storm will 'miss' Florida, so hopefully the impact will be not as bad as Irma's.

Yeah if they hit you right these hurricanes are Island killers.  The current tracking has it going a little North of us, so hopefully we will get maybe only tropical storm conditions, although with the damage done from Irma, the rain will be a big problem for many.

Well I'm glad to hear you have been able to escape any further damage to your island and will be able to join us. Lord knows we could use some more drivers on the grid. 13 in the last race was pretty anemic compared to what we have become used to.

Yeah Chad, fingers crossed. 

I would be happy to help do some more promotion for the league.  I know you want to keep it manageable and with like minded drivers, but we have a good core group to build on and even if we get a lot of sign ups, often many cannot make it or simply drop out.  The videos that Tom produces are promo gold and when I first join I thought it was a very nice aspect to this league.

I'm sure some promotion wouldn't hurt us at this point as we are still far of achieving steady 20 car grids. Imo that is the goal we should have. Of course not with any cost and it's not something that is a must but would be nice to have.

Also lets hope there is no (insert a woman name) storming your way anymore.
