Hey guys... since its going to be a long day for just one run I thought I would do some weather calculations. The weather will change a bit as the day goes on, but dam its quick now... here are the numbers.

Temp 39
Humid 42%
Bar 30.25
DA -1473
Wind tail 5-7mph
Water grains 14.4 ... never seen it this low

I made a test run last week, and went a 8.30. Using the above weather numbers I'm getting a prediction of 8.12. Yikes, I don't need that kind of hp... my index is 9.40

For reference, these were the numbers for last weeks test.

Temp 75
Humid 33%
Bar 29.95
DA 1682
Wind slight cross
Water Grains 46

As Ken said, plenty of time for Sportsman racers to get ready for their lone run of the day.. and to take the "proper precautions." Or just get everyone on board with a mineshaft condition. Regardless, that also means we have plenty of time for a conversation with last year's Super Stock champ, the friendly and likable Sterling Simmons.
