This Just In From The Dixie Cup

Well, not just in. it happened ten hours ago.

The fast time of the night in the single lane outlaw jam was . . . . Karl Floitgraf.

Faster than CBark, faster than Pappas, faster than any pro.

Although I didn't see the times after the third and final run, Karl's advantage after two was somewhere between .3 and .5 tenths. Initially he had a full half second with the only sub 18 second run in the first round. I think the gap narrowed a bit but not enough.

Everything went off well. No major timing issues, plenty of practice for everyone and the racing was over around 11:30. If was brisk last night but no one was in fear of anything important falling off.

A last-minute surprise is Dan Gesmer was available to come in and run the timing table and Noah scored enough brownie point at home so that Christine let him race. He, Ohm and Earl showed up late and did not do the Outlaw race.

I knew this was coming, and It's Due!

Karl, just tweak things a little, be self-observant, and GO! :-D

Can't wait to see you on the Snow this winter! Aloha!
