Whoa jeez! Thanks for reminding me!

It will be full by Wednesday

Has a run/work order been figured out yet for sunday?

Thanks thats what I was looking for. ;)

FJ in heat 2?

It should be heat four. I pointed that out a while back.

It'll be HOT HOT HOT!!!!! Bring lots of water, sun lotion, hat, sunglass, wet towel and umbrella.

Drink lots of water. Put several bottles in the freezer. It's great when you wrap a wet towel around it!!!!

Don't count on ice water at the site. We do and have run out before and if we are short on workers, nobody will be able to get more!!!

I believe water guns are optional. Remember if you bring a sprayer for your tires, the water will be HOT in the afternoon.

Have fun, be safe and stay cool!!!

It was 104 out there today and tomorrow is supposed to be a ditto. Trust me on this, it was NASTY.

Mike bought coolers for each worker station ... he bought lots of water and ice. Water is already iced and ready to go.

Pete, Matt, Mike, Steve and Karen and I spent about 5 hours on the course ... with Mike, KJ, Joe and Brian Peters helping out. Brian's suggestions and reminders that it's AX and not mini road racing should give us a pretty nice course!

Thermometers were reading 107! ... but there was a bit of a breeze

Thank you SOOOOO much for the cold water, didn't think I'd run out as soon as I did.

And extra THANKS for the ice cream, YUMMY! Was one of the highlights of my day!

And of course, thanks for all the usual stuff, I'll see you all out there tmrw!

It was indeed incredibly HOT but still a lot of fun ... thanks everyone

put it in 2nd. you lost some huge time in the fast sections (on the limiter) and it doesn't look like you made good enough use of first gear to make up for it.

Thanks for the feedback, but I was never hitting the limiter... I was at least 500 rpm away from it... so if it sounds like I am hitting the limiter it is actually me baking out of the throttle... probably where I should not do that, but my 3 year old street tires do not have the greatest amount of grip...
Still, this was one of the faster courses this year and maybe I should have tried 2nd on one of my x-runs... 2nd has not been usable sine the April El Toro event, and I have tried a few times...

Sat. Video of the practice course... And a clean run... Geez, got to finish celaner on Sundays...

Tom Berry's first and slowest, clean run from Sunday. 60.9 if I recall.

I didn't record his last/fastest run... Bummer.
