2011 Nationals
The #82 Orange CMC2 car made it to Mid Ohio without issue. We left the on site dyno with a smaller restrictor and a conservative 258/302. The new rain tires are mounted and we are ready to go. Dan will get his first taste of the track in practice tomorrow.

I'll be listening in, online.
Have fun and bring back some hardware to Texas.
-
Good Luck... I will be watching the online timing. Tell Dan to kick some butt.
-
Yeah, more Texas butt kicking!
Go get'em Dan!
-
Give 'em hell!
And, keep an eye on your cars hood pins ;)

I'm pulling for you guys. I'll be sitting by the PC watching.

Three practice sessions down. Three to go. Car is fine. Weather is... yucky. Rain overnight. Heavy overcast with intermitent heavy mist/light fog. Temps in the upper 50's. Track is different every lap and Dan isn't able to get any real heat into the tires yet. But he has kept it on the track. Two munched Factory 5's. Both should be rebuilt in time for racing.

Remind him it is a long week. Mid Ohio is slick in the wet, but nothing like MSR-C. Rim ridding is the key and I'm sure he knows that.
-
that sealer is nasty slick, definitely helps emphasize the rain line and whatnot :)
There are a few TTers out there as well, I'm hoping it isn't just CMCers bringing home some trophies!

Tell dan to find a GOOD set of polarized lenses and then drive around the shiney spots. Works like a charm. Sounds like crappy week like in 2008.
