Hi, there, boys and girls and all the ships at sea. Here's what's going on:
First of all: Max's motel (i.e. Bed Bug Heaven) didn't wake him early enough, so he's just on his way out to hook up the audio. He'll be on the air in fifteen minutes or so.
Second, we're only going to run #1 and #2 for the rest of the event. And because the first mile was getting pretty chewed up, both courses were moved one mile downcourse overnight. So we're now using what was mile marker #1 yesterday -- as the 0 today.
And that means that instead of getting things up and running so you'd know what's going on -- I've been towing toilets from the old start lines to the new ones - - for the last hour or so. I took a break to let you know the story.
Return runs have begun already, with the first car going down about a mile and a half and spinning. I'm typing and didn't hear what vehicle it was. I'll get started with that stuff in a few minutes.
And that's what's going on.
Ah- Bob Merkle (?) just backed up his record with the 1959 Metropolitan. No speed - sorry.
7552 REMR running 215 yesterday on a 212 record is next. It's Rat Trap LSR on #2. First mile 195 1/4 207 first mile 211.550 216.557 middle mile 217.990 last mile -- go to inspection for your record..
