Fast forward to yesterday with the same numbers I went 9.90 I go 10.07 WHAT...? I made a pretty big change and it goes 10.04 . OH NO ! So with my years of experience I turn the stop off and I knew it would be way fast and it was 9.700. NOW WHAT ? So this morning the wind that I blamed for my slow runs had finally pretty much stopped, so I just put the same numbers that I ran the 9.84 with in it. I pull up in the lane and end up next to Jim Taylor JUST WHAT I NEED. ...The end result was Jim tattooed me on the tree .006 I'm 0.40 and run a 9.931 not too bad but he's 9.929 for the win. So here I am spectating at the Gator Nationals and I'm ok with it. Photos coming soon.

I feel your pain Rob. At least you're getting to race .
