Weather today was better than yesterday temperature wise but wind did cause issues. As I posted in my streaming thread, racing was halted at 11:30 due to strong crosswinds. Winds did die down a little and racing resumed around 3:00 PM only for cars and lower HP bikes. A lot of these cars and bikes started hot lapping and around 4:30 PM, I packed it in even though Jesse said they may run later than 5:00 PM if the win abated. Tomorrow is supposed to be 74 degrees and little wind so hopefully racing will be back to normal!
Jesse told me late this afternoon that this is the 16th meet here. This is the 1st one they have ever had to have a LONG hold on the course for wind.
As for today pics:
The first one is the banner that files over Main St. here in Presque Isle. They are VERY happy to have the racers here!
After that one, the next 10 - 15 are a small tour of this former Air Force Base and some now empty buildings. I can only imagine what this former active Base was like. Kinda made feel sad.
After those the rest are from the pits, staging and starting line.
Anyway, here is my Google+ link for today:
