curious Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Good morning, The Foxton trials scheduled for tomorrow (Tuesday) have been postponed until Thursday 9 December. This is due to Foxton having experienced heavy rain with more forecast today/tomorrow.

curious Posted December 5, 2021 Author Share Posted December 5, 2021 Not sure where NZTR get their idea of heavy rain. We've had 4mms in the last 24hours 5 kms away and at another place 400m away 3.6mms. There is rain in the forecast through tomorrow but it is currently 19 degrees.

mardigras Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Just had some timber delivered from Marton. Truckie said the rain only hit as he got nearer me. Fair enough if they think the rain is going to get heavy - but then that is what they should say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curious Posted December 5, 2021 Author Share Posted December 5, 2021 Agree. None here since I posted. Who is the NZTR meteorologist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hesi Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Maybe they are gun shy after the Trentham debacle. The last thing NZTR want is people turning up on Tues morning and they have to call it off because the track is not safe to race on. Better to leave it till Thurs, when the weather looks more settled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
