Hi gang - well like they say its going to be a stinker .No , not the race but the weather - its already hot and humid at this early hour .The trip here - uneventfull i'm glad to say - just a short 7 and a half hour jaunt .It was boogie here and not fool around .Me ? This young man is ready for a nap and then tech in later - forget test n tune , not going to learn much today but they are going to run until 8pm and i'll fill you in with any details i might find .

Did notice something odd about a half hour from the track where we stopped to fill up - when was the last time you saw diesel and hi test at around the same price ?

Later kids ............BTW, I just threw in the beach pic for fun . It was either here or the beach - which was the smarter move ? ?

New England RV dealer Marc LaBrecque showed up this weekend with a fresh Winnabago Tour that is just the cats' behind - huge slides - twin screw - plenty of rich Corinthian leather couches - a double door fridge that holds enough food for an Army and this this thing must be close to fifty feet long - he says its only in the mid forties .I told him it must be hard to drive with a stacker behind it - he says nope - its a breeze - a monkey could probably drive it .........turns out he's close to being right ..............

Good Luck to everyone this weekend! Whew it's hot out my Phone says "Feels like 112 degrees". Man can't imagine being in a firesuit and hot racecar. Stay safe and hydrated!

Test n tune going on this afternoon - funny thing is more passes are being made by alcohol cars than Stock and S/S stuff.......No , its not fast out there but the traction was decent - no mineshaft stuff but they are leaving without terrible wheelspin .

Jack could you ask Marc how he trained his dog to drive his mororhome, even-though my Wiemaraner can guard my Bus I've never been able to get him behind the wheel? Claude

With a couple of hours left on the test n tune a storm blew in very quickly and ended it all .Good news ? ? Its a whole lot cooler now than before ...

I've had Wiemaraners for years....they train us to do everything for them. If you don't know that then your Wiem is especially bright. LOL. Our oldest was a Can Am and specialty champ that even showed at Westminster and think she had us whipped into shape by 6 months of age. (Probably a more expensive hobby than racing in many regards)

Jack, there are still a few states that diesel is cheaper than premium, it's taxes, refinery logistics and of course political BS.

Good luck to all, stay hydrated for sure.
