    Attached are PDF's of the Index Results from this year's second trip to Blytheville for a National Tour. Note that the "Class Pos." column indicates "Final" Class Position.

    H's & K's,

    Thanks Rick!

    Saturday was cool and clear. It wasn't until my 2nd run that we had good heat in the tires. I'm sure single driver cars had more of an issue. Course was not overly dirty 1st heat. But there was a noticeable difference between 1st heat and the challenge rounds. Temps probably had a large part to do with that.

    Day 2 saw similar temps. But heat 2 didnt seem to warm up as quickly Saturday.

    Courses were well balanced. Even though there were some good power sections. I would call them momentum courses. Both days had us needing shifting to 3rd for a high speed wallom, though Sun it was more difficult as the wallom drove into a realtively slower section to line up for the finish. Many people chose to just ride out 2nd gear. Including the top 2 in pax.

    Great courses and event overall! Not sure why more people don't make these events! I've done over a dozen National events up there and they are always top notch!

    I counted an astounding 23 first place finishers which finished behind you on PAX. Now I know there are some classes including L classes where there is little competition but that speaks volumes.

    The morning heat was pretty cold both days, although I seemed to have more grip on Sunday. While some Alien drivers like Cashmore could do well, it was pretty rough on cold tires and surfaces and in a new car for me.

    Location, location, location. It's a 24hr drive for me to get to B-Ville, and it's not an easy tow with the hills. The one time I made it down there, I loved it. Great site, great town. Now, if only they could make it an 8hr tow for me...

    Post was supposed to be on another forum and directed at Adam Deffenbaugh relative to his pax position to other class winners. Tried to delete it and was blocked. Surprised it didn't triple post.
