In. The weather report is 96* and 55% humidity. Autocross on the surface of Mars?

The heat index for 96℉ at 55% humidity is 112℉, and it may feel up to 15 degrees higher in direct sunlight. That's in the heatstroke zone. Drink plenty of water.

Yes, it is from a rain event earlier this season. Several people wanted to try it in the dry.

I bet if you straight line the Chicago box and hit the cone with the left side it is worth 2 seconds.

You should try it. M3 bumper covers are cheap.

We'll set it up so a Miata can squeeze thru, but a fat M3 can't.

Just for that, Jerrett is going to put out 17 pointer cones to the right of it so you REALLY mess up your splitter.

Exactly my thought John. No sneaking out early. But I guess it's better than working last heat...in the heat!

Working the last heat was brutal! It was so hot I was lactating.

That was a lot more fun than the last time we did this course when it was under water for Solo #2 back in April. I picked up 9.3 seconds.

Yep, 'fraid so. I narrowed the gap and even caught the bouquet, but the bride picked up time too. I plan to make it to the altar by working on my braking and cornering before Solo #6. That's where I waste the most time.
