Wow, this is a warning sign of things to come, for the superstitious, anyway. ( No. 1313 ) This was Bobby's Track Pass. In the end, we fell
out of the race with a blown head gasket. "Wagner, 5, Mechanical"

Pit lane prior to the first practice session. The weekend was
a wet one, drizzle and showers off/on the whole weekend. The track
surface was terrible, with huge areas of pavement chewed up by a
highway resurface machine. The thrashing the chassis took was amazing,
there were times I could not read the tachometer because of the
vibration.

We met the BFG Technical Crew this weekend. They gave us some
tire temperature readings. The weekend was too cold to make any
judgments.

Here we are, at speed, just pass the finish line.

Don is talking to me, helping me trying to figure out to what
to do about the large areas (patches) of water out on the track.
The BFG guys offer me a fishing pole, perhaps I can catch some of the
fish
that have migrated into these large water pools.

There is a lot of hunting in WV, so I heard. We are hunting
for horsepower and handling.

Mosquitoes ??? Poison Ivy ??? Don't know what we were
talking about here. Perhaps we are on our way to get something to eat?

This is the Dodge leaving the pits,

Eric shows up, just in time for a little fun and some dinner.
He has already commandeered the tool box tow vehicle/gofer machine.;

The paddock area at Summit Point is real shady and
rural. This was a real nice & quiet area. Weird that we found
ourselves here, unless of course, this is the place where they put the
new guys, to keep them away from everybody else.
