I know every track has this happen. But, when I worked the Gators one year. We would get on the track with towels and wipe up the water "trails", then a pair would run then we would do it again. From the time we hopped over the wall to let the cars run until they passed the water would rise up and you could see the tire tracks through the water! That gave me a uneasy feeling having driven on a track like that and having that "on ice" feeling below me. They take forever to get rid of. Good luck.

Jack,tell Uncle Buck I said hello and best wishes to him.

Well we final got out first run at 2:30. The in car cam is brought yo you by Bill Belden in his I/S Nova. The camera movement was do to poor mounting. I hope to have a better mount for Indy.

Here are a few more photos. I will have some Super Stock picture later along with a SS in car cam.

I will be at Indy in A/SA. I am trying to see what the car likes in A. I have not run in A weight for over 3 years. I know I can not win class, but I know it will qualify. I'm not going to make the same mistake I did last year.

The in car cam is brought to you by Pete Biondo. I wanted a different look. I also bet Pete dinner if he could hit the tree .015 or better with his eyes closed. Well he went .009 and dinner was on me. Now we all know how to cut a light, I didn't think it was that easy.

Here are some pictures of SS in the lanes for there first qualifying shot.
