With the previous day in the 90s we were prepared for heat.
However, Sunday turned out to be cool in the morning only slightly warming up in the afternoon.
The wind severity increased as the day progressed forcing cones to be double stacked.
With a shortage of course workers battling the wind, it was very difficult to cover the entire course. The course workers did a great job constantly running around.

Congrats to Seb for taking top PAX! The very fast SM Evo was only 0.004s behind him.
Here are the results for our local drivers that made the trek (minus the cool Mr. Hironaka):

I have 1 vid to post in a few. Stay tuned.

Here is my fastest run. Please excuse the occasional appearance from the camera tether.
NOTE: You will see several downed cones due to the wind. If everyone had stopped for wind cones, we would have been there all day. The course workers did their best after cars passed. It was tough running with the radio and only having 1 worker in my section.

The course was fun, it took a couple of runs to get readjusted to the Prelude.

You drove the Quaalude? Why?

Speaking of wind, I just replaced my front bumper after an incident with doubled-up cones during our last windy practice day.

Theo, that sucks. You're not alone, as a couple of Miatae sacrificed rocker panels at El Toro...the Bjoin and Hayter machines.

And at least one Evo fender liner.
