"Live From" Virginia Motorsports Park DIV 1-1

Kind of a dismal forecast but since it was scheduled to be complete on Saturday perhaps you have Sunday as a "flex" day....hope it goes well, look forward to seeing pics and results of the D1 hordes...your car counts always amaze me. Hopefully you'll even have a good Comp turnout. Love Comp and the counts thus far this year have been disappointing, a whopping 9 Comp cars at Houston this weekend.

Hey James, no worries, if you have time that's great. More important, have fun this weekend.

Test and tune is just about done. Nothing special to report, except for the wind. most of the day it was 12-16mph with 20mph gusts. Still a light turnout, but tomorrow should be better. The weather will be a little warmer tomorrow, but the winds will be the same.

I will be back tomorrow with more photos, videos and info.

Well I rolled in at 10:05 and was parked at the gate for the night. They are very prompt on their cut off time at VMP nowadays. Should've been here a lot sooner but I didn't allow enough time travelling with my circus.
See you guys bright and early in the morning!

Good morning all, its a chilly sunny morning with a brisk head wind. Stock is out first this morning at 8:30. The pits are starting to fill up, and it looks as if there will be a lot more cars here today.

The weather for this morning looks to be quick in spite of the head wind.

Temp 50
Bar 29.80
Humid 45%
DA -350
Wind head 8-10mph.

Be back later....

Thanks Paul, haven't seen it yet but apparently it was in the mail box yesterday and I didn't check it as luck would have it. I heard this morning I was a star! Lol Actually I'm parked very close to the star of Charlotte, Joel Warren. Spoke with him this morning and was able to congratulate him in person.
As for this race we are done with 2CD round of qualifying and it was announced that will be it. Right into eliminations in the morning, trying to beat the weather coming in tomorrow. When final sheets are up I'll try to post if Ken doesn't beat me to it.
Good air this morning but a very strong headwind which is not that unusual for here this time of the year. Tomorrow morning should be interesting.
