We're back from the "worker's" supper at the Black and White/Carmen's. Great spare ribs and trimmings -- good times and good buddies.
Tomorrow's fun is forecast to start at eight or so -- with the Speed Demon ready to run, the Ack bike supposedly ready with new tires, maybe the Nish car with a fixed drive shaft (that's what I heard - they hurt it. I don't have confirmation from the team, though). Never can tell what the Spectre will do -- but today it put Amir into the pretty exclusive club of drivers that have driven a wheel-driven car over four hundred miles per hour.
So -- among others at the Black and White tonight was James Rice, who handed me the thumb drive with the run results on it. Here's the list from today:

Let's see if any of you caught that one run near the end of the day. Cook had a visitor on the salt and gave him a run through the lights in the Cookmobile dually diesel pickup.
There was one better run, but dang it, no timing slip. Two workers were doing a sweep, one almost a full mile ahead of the other. The clocks showed entry speed of 29 mph, exit speed of 20 mph, and mile speed of 297 or so. That would have been a great souvenir, wouldn't it?
C U in the morning, folks. Thanks for letting me help you enjoy the Top Speed Shootout 2010 - for another day.
PS I'll ask Nate Jones about tire diameter and growth at speed. Tomorrow I'll ask, okay?
