See y'all there.
There was hardly any wind to speak of and temps were in the 70's most of the day. The cars weren't running 5-10 mph faster, they were running what they should. SW went 243 mph on Friday, 3 mph slower then his run in March and another buddy of mine was running on Sat., 178 mph, 6-7 mph slower then his runs in March.

Yep the wind was out of the N - NE which is a slight cross/headwind. So everyone was running about where they should under normal conditions.


I know SW went 231 in his Gallaro on one of his passes on Saturday.
