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 ..............

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, 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.
