I'm gonna die of tired if I don't get some sleep tonight, but I'll make it through another few minutes to give you this story.
There are 5 cars in impound tonight (and 4-5 bikes, too). All five of the cars qualified over 200 - 4 over 200, the #66 B/FR over 300. Assuming they all back up their respective records and get certified, one driver will get a blue hat and 3 will get red hats. The remaining car is in impound at 201 or so - but there's a 210 minimum for a hat in that class, so that driver will have to have a return run about 220 or so to get a two-way average above that minimum. Maybe, maybe not - but it could happen in the nice cool air of morning.
And that'd make for a 5 for 5 hat day.
Return runs start with the parade to the line (we're down to course 1 only now) at 7.30. Tune in to hear the fun.
Here's a good hint, by the way: We'll announce when the fuel roadster is going to run, and you should record the audio as he roars past the microphone and then use it for a ring tone on your phone. Wouldn't that make for a great way to announce an incoming call?
