Kudos to Jim. Showing the dedication it takes to be successful (which is NOT defined by the number of Wallys on the shelf).

If 60 alcohol cars show up you folks are in for a LONG weekend.

Well it is hot as blazes here right now. 99 degrees!! There are a few people testing, but we are not. Larry and Mr. Longhany are working on my golf cart now. It is still misbehaving! Hopefully a new carbuerator will fix it!! I have not been taking any pictures out in the heat. Not many people sitting outside their motorhomes today! And I didn't trust my cart to get me back home!! Tomorrow the weather is supposed to be a lot nicer with highs only about 80. That will sure be a welcome relief. We are all supposed to get 2 runs tomorrow and 1 on Sat, then eliminations!

More later!

Jim is one of the hardest working racers out there!

And just an all around great guy as well!

Let me tell you folks - its just plain ugly here at VMP . Anyone with even half a brain is inside with the AC on ultra high ……..The few folks who are testing must be breaking in new engines cause you can't learn much in this soup ! ! ! This has been a 3 t-shirt day so far with no end in sight .

I drove to Florida a number of times from NJ and it was generally at Richmond where the hot high temps were really felt to me.

I can recall at least twice stopping for fuel and feeling the heat and when I left NJ is was very comfortable.

Way to hot !

Oh you Yankees are way to spoiled with your pleasant temps and low humidity! Today was just typical day for us down here, maybe a little above normal for October but certainly not uncommon.

Funny I was actually thinking I think I want to move down here, I will take this over cold or snow any day of the week! We made 5 passes today testing and I did not sweat nearly as much as mid summer humidity in New Hampshire
