Events around here are notorious for being 3 to 4 hours behind schedule. I get fed up quick b/c I don't care to be at the track ALL day. I like racing, but not that much. That's just what I tell my brother when he goes racing in 95 degree weather. I tell him I also love racing but not when I sweat so bad I cant enjoy it. And when its that hot my glasses steam up when I put my helmet on. LoL. And I really don't like standing around all day either as it tears up my joints. Ron

Top end is another story, I'll just shoot out the Bat hook from the front of mine onto his shoot cage and hitch a ride on one of his 160 mile per hour passes.LOL. As far as hurry up and wait on the hottest of days? No way. I don't perform good watching paint dry between other classes and my car doesn't either.

Now going through my whole brake system being that the cylinders vomited all over the shoes. Going to GP tomorrow at some point ????? to get Grumpy Fred to shave the drums for a whole new surface.
