really?
Jeff saw you out there last weekend. That had to be brutal between the heat and sitting around that much. I think I'll pass for sure on that one. We were thinkoing of racing out there this weekend but I think I'll pass again. I did run the PSCA B1 deal in July, managed to win that deal but everyone gets lucky.

As for the stop, yep that is the dealio. I have not run the car at 10.90 in the heat yet. This 5000'+ DA stuff is for the birds. IIRC in July we saw 5800', just dumb. I put one of those fancy disc stops on and need to get out and see how that goes. But we both know I have no idea what I'm doing

Oh yeah having a non climate controlled shop out here is also for the birds....
