    Went out for the first Summit race at WHP. With almost 300 cars there it was a very long day/night. The gates open at 8am and we didn't get home until mid night. There were some problems the track had like no score boards and no win lights plus we had to get the time tickets at the tower. With all the problems the crew didn't a great getting the race done. I got 6 pass with all the 60ft of 1.49 and the best E.T. of 10.821 so the new track surface was working great I did make it to the semi finals before I miss the tree and ran the 10.82 on a 10.86 dial in

    I don't know what the track temp was but the high for the day 75deg and the low was 59deg. Also I am sure they will have the place ready for the national and divisional. We have another team race this weekend and a club day the weekend after that so they should have it worked out. yes it is nice having a track again
