Got up at 5:20am and made it to the track in decent time. After a little confusion at the gate, was able to get in before 8am with the contestant sticker, and got through tech and credentials smoothly. Heavy dew on the car this morning as it got down to the low 40's last night, but it's burned off. Currently 56.7 F, 59%, and oh, wherefore art thou barometer? 29.37. (Got spoiled with the 30+ baro at MIR last week. 726' DA.

Parked between Gene Jordan and the PC Richard crew. Saw the Fisher family this morning as son John is shoeing"That D*mn Dodge" this weekend for Johnny. Robbie Shaw's Firebird looks very clean with no decals, but it'll be getting the Strickland "contingency wrap" shortly, with the proper sized decals.
