Right off their site: WIll Run Sunday

ATTENTION MOPARS AT THE ROCK FANS AND PARTICIPANTS
In the event of any foul weather during Saturday’s 20th Annual Mopars at The Rock we will complete the event in it’s entirety on Sunday, April 17. The event is on for this Saturday as scheduled, Swap Meet Gate opens at 7am, Car Show and Race Car gate opens at 8am and the
spectator gate opens at 9am.

I am sure Sat will get rained out, so I think I am just planning to head there late Sat night or early Sunday.

Did everyone get home from Mopars @ the Rock OK ?? We were about 5 miles ahead of the tornado that leveled parts of Sanford NC right off US1 then got home and in the bathroom before the tornado went through Raleigh . Hope everyone travling made it home safe. This was the Lowes in Sanford.

We made home ok. We sat the last rain strom out then left. Got about 20 miles from track sun came out and was like that all the way home. Thanks for asking. Nice to get 1 round in and split the money.

WOW, I had no idea it hit down there until I saw this and then I started watching the news. I am sorry to hear that. I wish the best to everyone that had damage. Hopefully nobody was hurt.

Kind of glad we stayed home. We had terribe winds but nothing like that.

New? No ..the south gets alot of these.
for instance here in georgia we are on our 5th or 6th tornado warning..with the sirens going off..
my old/previous house got hammered a few weeks ago ..pretty bad..fwiw.
teh south sees it fair share of this ..it comes out of the gulf..often..

that storm SC got..hit Alabama killed 21..
passed through here Georgia..but it was much tammer.
i see it did some real damage though..in Sc.
it picked back up...

We stayed home this past weekend. Glad nobody here had any problems due to the storm.
