Is anyone bringing compressed air to play with tire pressures?

Howard, I know I gave you the combos the very moment I got them... I just know I did!

PM coming your way.

Interesting day out there today, think we had a total of 5 people show up, 2 I've never met before. Got so many runs in before 1 o'clock had to call it a day. New timer looks awesome, it counts the real time as a car is out on the course, pretty cool. Only small gripe is that if they're two cars running, the first cars time is only displayed for 5 seconds or so, then it goes back to the car on the course. No big deal, maybe there are some settings for it ? Either way, it's a awesome looking display ! :thumbwink:

Disappointing turnout, but I guess it was short notice... and not enough people check the forum.

No big deal, I had fun, and met Don and his son. They had one bad ass car out there, a Peloz ? Looks kinda like a Viper that has been mated with a Corvette. They were breaking in their clutch for a Atlanta race in a couple weeks. Nice people.
