Bfest and the Denver Fires!

Post by Stencil »

Hey All,

For anyone that missed it, the northern half of Colorado Springs has been on fire for the last week (not to mention the 4 other wildfires that have been going on around the state). While it appears that we have most of these fires under control now (mostly contained with very little chance of spreading) and none of these fires are within 50 miles of Denver, there is a decent amount of smoke in the air still. It's really not bad, and they expect most of it to dissipate over the next few days so it may not even effect us, however if anyone coming has any breathing or asthma issues, be sure to bring an inhaler or whatever you need as there is a high amount of particulates in the air.

As a side note, alot of people came to my house during Bfest 04. The Black Forest Fire (480+ homes burned, most destructive fire in Colorado history) actually started about 1/2 a mile from my old place. The wind never went south, so it was spared (sister lives there now) - Kinda scary! :)

I'd put up some pics, but the board says I'm a noob and I can't :(

I was wondering if it would affect drag racing at Pubelo or the Garden of the Gods, etc.

Aaron, are you coming to the meet? We are rocking my wife's Eco for the trip. haha

Yup, We'll both be there on Thursday. Likely we'll bring both cars, so we can chill in the "45MPG and Up" area of the parking lot together ;)
