About 6:30 tonight I decided to take the car and run it at Gainesville instead of Orlando. It's about 100 miles from here, but decided I'd check it out, I'd at least get one run.
I got there at 8:50, they close at 10. I ran 5 times before the staging lanes closed. And I took a 30 minute break between run 3 and 4
There was nobody there, maybe 55 cars total and never more than 10 in the lanes at one time. You could honestly take run, loop back around and be running again in 3-4 minutes. Now when Ray talks about getting all these runs at Bradenton, I know how :grin:
Nothing great to show for it. Ran a best of 14.19, MPH was way off. The car was heat saoked from the 100 drive and the weather was not that good. In fact it started raining. One lane was biting pretty hard, although I only managed a 2.15 60', I can see it doing a lot better there than Orlando. Not to mention it's a very nice facility.
