Well I guess that will screw up the 4 wheeler races Labor day weekend and then the cross country later in September.

Goodness so awful. RIP and best wishes to those involved. Thank fucking goodness it didn't happen when the race was on though, who knows where that ends.

Sadly, yes.

I actually do remember him now that I see photos. Where I was usually parked, I would see him go back and forth in his utility SxS

Very sad

I didn't take it and it came from a LL account.

I believe Guyb was asked to remove the first thread about the flooding because of that photo, it would probably be best to take it down.

I worked at loretta's on the track crew for 6 years and remember Wayne from then.

He was a friendly and tireless. The hat and the smile were always sincere, and he was never without both.

Condolences to his friends and family, and to all those who have suffered terrible losses during this tragic event.

I worry about Waverly, TN and the LL's folks

Right now covid is last thing on their minds. Hugging, crying, mourning, gathering, working, clearing....and in a week or so, that place is going to get hit again.

The Waverly hospital is not even large enough to be a kennel & vet hospital down here...it is tiny. It can't handle it. It's all hands on deck during LL's. It has to be maxed out right now as it is, and then a influx of covid patients?

Not trying to be a Debbie Downer, just looking at the realities.

Fact, for every degree centigrade the earth warms, the atmosphere holds 7% more water vapor. I just returned from Europe and relocating my Mother from catastrophic floods that wiped out dozens of towns in Germany and killed approx 300. A small river about the size of the creek at LL's rose 27 feet high and more than a 1/2 mile wide. My point is, if you are paying attention these events (Fire, floods, and wind) are clear signals of climate change. Anyone and everyone who is denying the scientific proof along with these signals needs to have a reckoning with their conscious and be humble enough to change their views.

Other than dirt bikes, everything needs to go electric ;-)
