SpeedWeek 2019

Slim:

You did a typo!  This year (at least according to the plate on top of it) Speed Demon's engine is 555 - not 255 - cubic inches.  That would jibe with its AA/BFS class markings.

And we all know George likes to be at the head of the line on day 1.

Jeff from Boise - who's looking forward to running tomorrow, too!

Morning Slim, good to hear you again.
Have a safe day and go fast.

Getting ready to leave my house. I'm  110 miles away. I might miss the first hour but not much more than that.

[Seldom Seen Slim]

No typo.  The 715 carwas entered with the AA/555 motor, but it's the E/255 that's in the car this morning.  I'll hazard the guess that George and team wants to run a good number first thing - and the big motor is kinda overkill for the might-be-funky race track.

[STICK777]

... and as usual he probably has several engines of different sizes packed. According to HRM he also wants to go for the A/BFS record with a 441" engine.

No sign of any streaming yet. How does the course look this morning?
Good luck everyone.

[Seldom Seen Slim]

No runs yet but any minute.  I think the stream is live - checks ok here in the trailer.

I  haven't been on the course, of course, but the  access roads were pretty dry.

[Tom Slick]

The stream is running however it seems to be a recording. Have they started broadcasting live?

[comet]

Loud and clear here in the UK. Thanks gents. Nice to hear you again.
Good luck guys.
