It's always been interesting to see the East and West coast guys come to Bowling Green and The US Nationals in 90 degree heat and wonder why their cars slowed down 2 tenths.

You are right about that Scott....

When we went to Indy in 1966 our car was running very slow compared to what we were used to running locally around here in NJ.......It was pretty warm out. We went to Munice dragway one night to try and make some runs and maybe get it faster but were not able to get any runs in there.....the place was jammed!
