Default Thunder Shootout weather dry and cool!!!!!!

That's right folks..... Nothing but sunshine and cool dry air. Density altitude numbers should be unreal!!!

From Wednesday thru Sunday it looks really good.

I'm going down Tuesday and try to go to the track Wednesday night to get a few passes in.

Ya'll come!!!!

I CANNOT WAIT! I'm finishing up some last-minute things with the car this week. I'd like to roll into Louisiana on Thursday, but I don't know if I'll be able to or not. Worst case, I'll see everyone Friday at test and tune! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Joe, I expect to see you out there laying down some VHT for me. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />
