\"\"<\/a>15 Apr 2017 Kent, WA –\u00a0Try as we may, beating \u201cmother nature\u201d is no easy task. The forces of nature will say at times \u201cbeat this issue\u201d. Such was the case for the Swift Tool and High School races today. Hours spent drying the track surface by the Pacific Raceways drag crew became like wiping your brow on a hot day, wiped dry and not long later, more moisture. With the sun going in and out of the clouds it became a battle of wills.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Either all sun or all clouds would dry the track in a few hours. With winter hour\u2019s still in effect it became apparent that time would not allow the race to be completed so it was \u201crained out\u201d and the last few hours turned into a \u201ctest-n-tune for those that wanted to wait until the track dried for a couple \u201chits\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As all of this drying and waiting the Hagen twins Abbie and Angie with parents Steve and Kim put on an 18th birthday party for their \u201cgirls\u201d. The \u201ctax-day twins\u201d as the track announcer calls them were in \u201cdual\u201d mode as they also take part in the high school portion of the Swift Tool Series. Although the \u201cseries\u201d race was rained out they did get to make a TnT pass showing their family and friends what their \u201csport\u201d is all about.<\/p>\n
