Danny and the rest of the CR viewers here are photos of Rick Winchesters Corvette. These pictures won't do justice to the stunning look of the car. The paint is by Rons custom body in Cincinnati and is a rich red candy with metallic flake underneath. PK Race Cars did the chassis work

To update the "situation " here, the initial delay was caused by issues downloading the Joliet race info in the timing system. At 11:00 SS started its Q1 with the annoucement that the indexes will be wrong but they will be manually fixed after the round

AND - after SS finishes, we go on hold while other computer issues are fixed.

Not good.

With all the downtime, fill us in on the truck. I am very interested as I just picked up a 2015 2.7.

Having to manually handle data is not good, but the timing system and the track are fine. I was in the very first pair down the track today, was .003 and had my best 60' since the beginning of June and best speed since May! Very happy.

80.2F, 44%, 29.06, 2794' DA

Computer issues are (or appear to be) fixed. We are progressing through the run order. Air is about 32-3300 ft. But for Columbus in July it's really comfortable.

This was the schedule yesterday's. I'm gonna look for updates and Q-Sheets

I got some feedback from the Tech guys on number size. What's important is visibility and readability in the staging lanes and from the tower. Color and fancy fonts that make it tough to read are the concerns. MJ Said 22 racers got letters after the Norwalk national event

This is the detail run schedule for today. We'll know soon if we go to Q2 or the Top classes run or what.




Hillbilly Roy Hill is here to get Stock grading points for Indy.
