LIVE from IHRA Div 2 Darlington
Good crowd, I was 213 in the gate around sundown. Saw a number of people testing, Brian Oakes, Art Leong, Jim Wahl, in addition to many of regulars. Myron thinks Artie did teardown, so we should see some good records. Hot and humid on tap for the weekend.
No testing for me, as it was 10hrs longer to get here than usual. ;-) Had a short delay as a coil pack went bad on the truck. Left my metric box up north reying to travel lighter but luckily had a 10mm swivel socket in my reg box, perfect for getting at #5 cylinder. Still need to change the spark plug. Seems to have killed it. Changed oil in the Volare with a new K&N oil filter, and some fresh CAM2 Blue Blood 0W30. New lettering on yesterday. More tomorrow....

See, Jim thought we were doing him a FAVOR when we said "you can park on the asphalt."
 In the shade on the grass, I've got 94 degrees, 3276' DA, and .90 vapor pressure. Wicked.316 cars total went down the track first session.
