"Live From" Vegas at the Strip

Ken Miele · 03-30-2017, 06:57 PM

Well, I'm not live but Timothy Fletcher is. He tells me the temperature is in the mid 70's, but the winds are at 25mph and gusting to over 40mph. Dust and dirt flying everywhere.

Not many cars out for photos today. Timothy will be doing a live stream of Stock in the morning. That would be 11 am eastern time, check out the class racer facebook tomorrow. Timothy has been a big help getting info to us from the west coast. He also writes for Class Racer Magazine. Check out his latest story on one racers idea of combing old and new.

Sorensen doesn't have a class designation on his car, wonder what that's all about....

Frank Castros · 03-30-2017, 08:07 PM

Flat hood too.

Should be really fast Friday, if you have a sail. Winds 25 MPH with gusts 40-50, tomorrow. Blowing down track.

A few more photos from yesterday. It looks to be a nice day with temps in the low 70's, but the winds are still strong around 25mph going cross to head. Don't forget to check out live streaming on the Class Racer facebook at 11 am eastern time...... Facebook

Gary, that is called "Wagon Air Plus" Unlike conventional auto bodies that equate to something like every 10 MPH you get a tenth, Wagon Air Plus equates to 10 MPH=2 tenths. Of course there is the dreaded Wagon Air Minus.

Good luck to all, remember, "No Excessive Braking"
