Hot action, on a hot track. Sounds like a great day.

Gonna have to make a Tulsa meet one of these days.

Ya Larry, that sounds like a summer day in Bakersfield, CA.

Your group of four was running well for the track conditions. Would love to make a race in Tulsa one of these days, but I will need a "BIGGER GUN" to jump into that fight.

Thanks for the race results, Mudflap. Not nearly as good as being there but it helps keep the juices flowing.

I passed up a Test and Tune because it was in the 90's. I'm such a wimp.
