Girls and boys, I've got Tom Liberatore (a/k/a Peter Pepperoni) signed up to get the audio streamed.  He's confident that he can make it work.  I sent him brand-new tomato soup cans with nice binder twine between 'em, so that part of the system should be primo.

He won't roll into town 'til Friday, he told me, but pretty soon thereafter he might have it figured out.  I'll keep you posted - so might he.

Gracie, be ready for "Help!" calls.  Tnx.

If you're talking to me, I'm not sure I'll have cell service this weekend. If I do receive a call, I'll do what I can.
I'm headed out to BF Eastern NC (towards the Outer Banks) and cell service is VERY spotty!

Just arrived in Wendover. At the Rainbow.

I saw it on the trailer in the parking lot as I went to check in at the Rainbow yesterday.

I've got one myself, and - believe it or not - it's titled as a 1987.  It came from Missouri, too. 

Hope to talk about you "going on a Rampage" in Tech today!

Hey, there, girls and boys.  If you're at the salt today/this weekend -- wouldja please besokind as to keep us informed of the salt conditions?  I know it isn't great - like an inch or so thick at the start line, according to this photo Ron Christensen just sent me.  We're all interested in how it's holding up to WoS.  Please let us know.  Thanks.

Hardest Salt in a decade.
Rough as a cob in the pits.
Haven't driven the track yet.

This is from a heave at the 9.

In all honesty, I'm stumped - as to where's the audio.  I'd made all the right arrangements, I thought, and now things just aren't coming together.  Please forgive me -- and I promise that I'm trying to figger out what to do next.  I don't get out there 'til next Wednesday evening.

I have to say that I don't know what happened - if anything.  I talked with Tom earlier and he and his crew were in the announce trailer setting up stuff and - I was out of the house with Nancy and her buddy and didn't have a chance to hear anything.  When I got home -- I get nothin' but noise.

I'm sorry -- will try to find out what's what.

Turbinater Ran 309?
Target 550 had a problem.
444 Vesco wagon ran well.
A couple of safe spins, a few breaks, but a nice day with no wind.

I'm first off after return runs tomorrow.
ROUGH hard course.
