THE WEATHER REPORT FOR TODAY CHANGED EVERY DAY AND SEVERAL CALLED FOR A WIPEOUT. ACTUALLY, THE STORM STARTED AROUND 4 IN THE MORNING WITH LOTS OF THUNDER AND LIGHTNING AND REALLY, REALLY STRONG WINDS. THE CAPS ON BOTH ROOF VENTS IN MY RACING TRAILER BLEW AWAY. FORTUNATELY, THE OPTIMISTS WERE RIGHT AND MOST OF THE MORNING WAS AVAILABLE FOR PRACTICE. FRIDAY AND SATURDAY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DRY BUT REAL COOL (MID 50'S AT BEST). STARTING FLUID MAY BE THE ORDER OF THE DAY.
I, OF COURSE, REALLY MISS BUTCH K AND HIS TEAM OF VINCE AND SEAN. THEY WERE USUALLY SO INTENSE THAT I OFTEN ENJOYED WATCHING THEM MORE THAN I WORRIED ABOUT "MAKING THE SHOW". AT LEAST THAT WAS MY EXCUSE.
RACES START TOMORROW AFTERNOON. WE WILL SEE WHAT THE COLD WEATHER DOES TO MAN AND MACHINES.
SMOKEY
