After the rain, David Manning and I were getting ready to stage when some pretty sizable critter jumped the wall right before half track and skjttered aacross, jumping the far wall. It's probably something Teuton brought with him like a chupacabra or something.

Hey Michael, I think someone said it was a raccoon! But I don't know, maybe Jeff did bring it with him!

It did cool off a lot after the rain, but there were lots of puddles (and creeks) in the pits. They had the sucker truck out here in the road just down from where we are pitted.

They are running comp now and then super comp, then the clean-ups I believe.

We start out with Super Street in the morning at 8, so more tomorrow.

Could be. It was a big sucker! If Jeff didn't bring him, he's probably on the grill now.

Bradley waved us off, but it went across pretty quick, and we went back to racing. I gave him a big grin and two thumbs up and he was still laughing in disbelief.

Can't make this stuff up. Really need to start using my go pro!

They really don't know her then. If she can still see the track during the wheelie "IT SPUN"! And she definitely ain't gonna put a wheelie bar on it!

Hey Larry, what is the spy report on Brett McFarland? New COPO shakedown run? Stick or auto? Thanks, Jim.

The copo is an auto. They seem to have issues with it just gremilins.

Imagine that, a full field at an LODRS event with a bump! Who said class racing is dead?

Still hot and humid today, but a little tailwind has made it more to the liking of both man and machine. 86.1 F, 58%, 29.69 baro, 2751' DA, .729 VP at 10:30 am.
