4/28
UNEXPECTED FAMILY BUSINESS LED TO A QUICK TRIP TO OHIO. IT GAVE ME A CHANCE TO GO WATCH THE CIRCLEVILLE RACE. THE PRIMARY WORD WAS WEATHER. A FEW BRAVE SOULS SHOWED UP FOR THURSDAY PRACTICE. RAIN AND HAIL DANCED AROUND CIRCLEVILLE BUT DIDN'T STOP SOME LIMITED PRACTICE IN 30+ MILE AN HOUR WINDS.
FRIDAY'S FORCAST WAS GOOD UNTIL EVENING SO 44 BRAVE SOULS SHOWED UP WITH THEIR KARTS. THE DID NOT START CONTEST BETWEEN GARY W AND I REMAINS TIED. MY STUFF WAS IN FLORIDA AND GARY'S HIP AND BACK WERE REALLY BAD. HOPEFULLY HE WILL IMPROVE AND GET BACK IN HIS CUSTOM HORNET.
ALMOST ALL THE RACES WERE COMPLETED ON FRIDAY. THE SATURDAY FORCAST IS FOR A COMPLETE WASHOUT. THE REAR ENGINE C & B OPEN RACES WERE IMPRESSIVE WITH A PRETTY LOW ATTRITION RATE. I HAVE TO GIVE A TIP OF THE OLD SMOKEY HAT TO THE #77 & 33 C MACHINES. I HAVE BEEN TO THREE RACES WHERE THEY RAN AND THEY HAVE COMPLETED EVERY LAP - USUALLY FIGHTING IT OUT FOR FIRST PLACE.
THERE WERE LOTS OF MACS AND KT100'S BUT SPAGETTI ROTARIES WERE IN SHORT SUPPLY. RAIN SHORTENED THE LAST C REAR RACE AND CANCELLED TWO OR THREE THIRD HEATS, BUT MOST OF THE KARTS GOT IN THEIR FULL THREE HEATS.
