Winds are supposed to be up to 18mph from the NW. The track looks like it runs East to West (slightly north). The temps are supposed to be around 42-49 degrees from 9AM- 1PM.

I call shenanigans! There's no way you're quicker than me in your own car. Just not possible.

Btw, we are getting that car to run 11.2 next time. That cooling is crucial.

Mo, there were alot of cars just not alot of mbs. Hami came down with his Kleemann clk on street tires. Real cool guy. His car makes too much power for street tires

Dont forget the snow mobile that ran a 9.26!!! That was crazy to see. I have a couple vids of BT running 11.5 and 11.37. Will upload them all. It was good to see BB and BT and also meet Hami.
