I will be in sec 3 up front The weather could go either way but they are good at drying the track so no problem.I will have a yellow JEGS hat on.

This old fart had to drive the 200 miles back home while the 24 year old was in the passenger seat snoring away. Oh and I also drove the 200 miles out.
I have to fess-up thou. I didn't make it to the race track Saturday. 88 degree weather on back to back days with high humidity was to much for the "old man". Matt made it long enough to destroy his 8 3/4 rearend. Oh well he has some work to do this week.
