Locals report that they upgraded to fiber optic for the timing system two weeks ago, and the rollout matched expectations: right there with Indy. .022 off the trailer, and ran a little more than a hundredth slower than Indy last week, without the benefit of the tailwind. Still blowing but mainly cross. I did see a white late model Mustang here with SS/CM on the window.

Last time I was here, the pit side wasn't paved, if that dates me a bit. Place looks great.

SS/CM or perhaps SS/CS??......

No, it wasn't Venice. Young kid in a stick car that was just recently licensing, I heard.

When I left, they were actually talking about waiting it out and drying the track. Had to get home, though, and as it turns out, they didn't get anything else in. Don't know if I'll get my split of the purse, but had a good test session regardless. Time to hit the rack!
