There were lots of red-lights today, so I guess it is pretty tight!
We are done for the day except for clean-up runs. I guess they are doing clean-ups. We had a little problem 2nd run, so we didn't get a good run.

Don't you love Stockers going 150+ mph?? Drew Skillman went 155 on his first run and Chris Holbrook went 158 on his 2nd run!

It has gotten a little overcast this afternoon. They are calling for possible a little rain tomorrow and tomorrow night. Hopefully it won't amount to much.

Oh, Mr. Bunkster, I loved the "Possum" song! Out in the country where we live, we could probably have possum every night!

Record runs are today and I haven't heard anything about anyone setting any yet.

Yup, definitely tight. Dropped 3 psi in the fronts, and was .001 second pass. Good excuse to put my tall front tires on again finally, should pull things back into a less risky high teen range. Big fronts have been in storage for almost a year, so I did a little cleaning and polishing of the wheels and the rest of the car (AFTER we were done for the day... makes all kinds of sense, huh?)

Tech, registration, and the event as a whole has been smooth. The day turned into gorgeous t-shirt weather this afternoon. Wind was a little up and down, but tail to crosstail pretty consistently when it was blowing.

Got to catch up with several friends that were just out speckletating today, some fellow racers that I hadn't seen in awhile, and meet some new friends. Went out to Cheddars this evening with the Hellenberg/Kyle group and had an excellent meal with super quick service. Time to clean up the driver and kick back to get rested up for the real work tomorrow.

It is 7:30 and Stock is on stand-by. Sun is up and it is 48 degrees. It is supposed to start with some showers by 4 this afternoon. Stock, super stock, super gas and super comp are all supposed to run Round 1 this evening, so I hope the rain holds off at least til after we get that round in. Then tonight more rain is forecast with showers again tomorrow.

I am going to try to get some pictures after we run this morning.

Last night we had a pretty good pot of chili here in our pits. Had lots of fun with our old and new friends that came over and joined us.

Well, more later.
