I don't think so, it was humid after the sun went down. The DA was probably thru the roof.
But he did get called out by some dude, and things went well from what I underdtand Ill let him tell that story though


-to everyone going next weekend, don't expect the best times simply because of the heat, but if you wait to run till later it'll be better, I'm definitely waiting.

Might be a good idea to move the noon meet-up to 2 or so??

We'd get to the track around 4ish (depending on if we take pics or not, I'd still like to) and still be able to get a pit spot, and have plenty of time left too... What yall think about that?? I'd like to get one long section in the pits for everyone... We won't fit in the grass, there'll be too many of us I believe.

I think 2pm will be better so let it be done!!!


Meet at 2 at hooters, discuss photo spots over some wings and head out.

I'm not looking to run till dark for sure! Robert if you want to see about working some on that thing... I'd like to see it run.

Joel, any plans for a head swap this week? It could be knocked out in an evening for sure.

I'm going to see about my reference line and spiking issue in the morning before its hotter than the surface of the sun. I've got a for sure fix, hard copper tubing my Tru-Trac is also going in on Tuesday. After that it'll be some appearnce stuff and more tuning as always.

Who else has work going on this week for the GTG???
