Ridiculously hot and its close to home so its not a large investment, ill make that up by working this weekend, and ill be ready to rock for BG. At least it sounds good on paper!

Nitro im going to try to talk Brad Hutton in to coming to BG with or with out a race car hah.

Yall don't know what hot is. Move to the swamp with us "Swamp People". 90-90 is a good day, and down to 80 at night is sweater time.

Boy, does it look like it is slow by looking at the qualifying #s. Anybody got the density altitude??

Jeff, your reply states that it gets hot down there. According to the weather channel, not only is it hotter in Columbus but the heat index is higher.

Now you guys are getting a taste of D4 racing. We run in that kind of weather all the time.
