Really feel for my D-7 buds, you know it’s going to be hot as HADES when the track shuts down from 2 to 6 pm …..Thank the LORD it’s a dry heat in PHOENIX, weather history shows highs expected close to 100 degrees ….

Note: That pavement is still hot at 6 pm. In fact it's still hot at 10 pm.Maybe you'll get lucky and they'll park you in the bowl. ;-)

I always struggle getting to the lanes before my 440 is 130 degrees. We end up pitting 1/2 mile from the staging lanes. Then it's up hill the last 200'
waiting to pair up. I'm sure like last year. They will be all over you if don't have a mask on.

The average temperature for the weekend of the WHP divisional is 101. I don't know why they couldn't have at least scheduled it for May when they knew about the state fair situation when they did. Track schedules can be changed, look at Sonoma. That being said I don't see how with over 2000 Covid per day the Indians and CDC will allow it to happen and the same applies for Vegas and Pomona even though they are scheduled for later in the year. We'll see!

Gosh darn it as my Mom would say. I hate being a woose because of the heat. I got diagnosed this January with some medical problems and the pills and hot weather just don't mix well. You know me Rick I'm a pick up and an open trailer still. Last of my breed. The "Dime rocket" of towing.

I'll have to gives this some serious thought. And here I just put the stocker parts back into the Dart.

And now the fair got changed back to the fair grounds not wildhorse.

And the plot thickens. I'd say if someone was smart he'd get with the track and move the race to Oct 21-24. Better chance of getting a car count than the way it's scheduled now.
