Yes, I dislike hot weather because most of the times <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" /> you can Not run any new best times during hot weather. It is OK to dial in a new setup or so--just not much excitement until you run that new ET. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Don't get me wrong, I still love to drag race--but it is just more fun setting the new record. IMO.

Yep, hot weather racing sucks, but I still do it. The only complaint I have is the insane amount of sweat! I have to keep a towel in the car to wipe my face off with, or the sweat will get into my eyes before I make it to the starting line. I don't mind the slower times; I just hate looking like I got out of the pool when I get out of my car after a pass. I sweat like a $2 ho.
