This stocker will not be there to put heat in the track .... good luck ...

They will be using JP1 traction compound at all Div 3 Races this year and are going to try to get as much in as possible on Friday....Just in case Saturday is bad.....it will be chilly but it looks like we will get it in....(I hope)

Typical Indy....

Will see you guys there....

C'mon BB...isn't your measurement of a good racing weekend a little different than the rest of us? You'd consider the weekend a success when you keep the motorhome in one piece!

Sorry...I couldn't resist...

I'm of the opinion that we invest a lot of money in this sport and expect to get some kind of enjoyment back. Rain is highly unpredictable...but temperature can be somewhat predictable. I'm not seeing a lot of potential for enjoyment this weekend. Obviously I will be there...but can't say I'm all that excited about it....

Wow, that was a low blow.....

BB hope to get there in one piece

I raced at Indy last weekend, and the track is looking good and hooking great and top dragsters were testing and going down the track.

You're right...that was low. I felt bad for a few seconds after typing it....

On an better note, just checked the weather and it seems to be improving temp wise....so revise my outlook to seeing a slight potential for enjoyment.

We were there, and the track was good. Heck, Bruce Litton made a pass in his T/F with no tire smoke.

I'm gonna top off the propane so we can run the heat all day....lol...

I like BB's enthusiasm ......

Let's hope it stays dry.....
