We had a couple of us practicing today. Hard to tell if the track conditions may be representative of what we'll find this weekend, but the braiding looks nice. Guide depths look to be the same as before. The JDSC cars handle SOOO much better than the F1's; I'm looking forward to that race. Looking forward to Friday!


I am hoping that your track conditions will be much better this weekend. The track will be cleaned before each day of racing, as opposed to the 4 days of rubber that are on it now. I also think I may have been off on my latest spray glue mixture that I use for the turns after cleaning, so I will be tossing that batch and starting from scratch on a new one. Trust me, it will make a huge difference!

To those that were here today practicing:

Update on the rebraiding: The outside braid on every lane except black was redone on the lead-on this evening. There will be work done in the doughnut Wednesday and theh track will be ready!

LOL...the F1 bodies were done last night, and the others are cut out and just need to be pinned and spoilers attached. Probably another hour or two. Can-am isn't until Sunday, so there's plenty of time for those.

Mine are never perfect....if I can keep the front tires from rubbing and wearing funny, I'm happy
