Had a great time at Elmo despite the conditions which went from meerly terrible to truly horrible. Cold!!! Snow on surrounding mountains. Very windy on sunday.
I took my brother Pat as pit crew and another couple of friends who had never been before. Bart and John were both impressed with the friendliness and cheerfulness of everyone they met.
Got a decent run in on sat with wheelspin the whole way. Ran 192 on a 191 record. Tried again sunday but course was really going away and there was a 15-20 mph headwind,darn. I suspected I would be slower but this is the last chance for a speed run until next year!!
Big thanks to John Noonan and the rest of the SDRC for all the help.

Land speed racing, where the sizzle is every bit as good as the steak. On to next year!
