[Fot] Weather at PVGP/Kastner Cup

Tue Jul 3 06:00:35 MDT 2018

Triumph Friends,

I am glad to see that the weather will be cooperating for the K-cup! I was reading through the previous e-mails and I had a few questions I was hoping a few seasoned PVGP attendees could help answer because I have never been to the track.

1. Are there shower facilities on site?
2. Apparently electricity may be tough to come by and if someone already has eletricity and is leaving the track for the night, could I run an extension cord and borrow some juice? I plan on sleeping in my trailer and I would like to run a fan and mini fridge.
3. Does anyone want to ADPOT a new racer for the weekend? I have a brand new 1296 engine that I built and I haven't had a chance to track test it yet (due to J500 flooding out) but I was able to dyno it and dial in fuel/air. But you know, I'm sure I'll have plenty of new guy/new motor problems and things that most of you guys that have been doing this for a while already all figured out. I'll have adult beverages on hand!

Thanks in advance for any replies and I'll see y'all this Thursday!

M. Huovinen

A nice trick is to stuff ice cubes into a couple of quart size ZIP LOC bags, and place them under your driver’s suit, one on each side at waist level.

My big concern is overheating both for my car and me.  The heat plus humidity will have you sweating just standing still.  Make sure to stay hydrated.

Looks like Friday is the only iffy day, but this has shifted from two days ago and may shift again.  
Overall looks pretty darned good - cooling off a bit too!

I just looked at the forecast for the end of the week for PIR and Pittsburg area.  They are indicating T-Storms mid week through Friday.  Looking decent for the weekend.  The Thursday and Friday test and practice days look wet.

What is the outlook for the weekend, given locale knowledge, of the East Coast weather at the track this coming weekend?

I had a message that Kas was on the road in Colorado.  I am flying in on Thursday.  Everyone have a safe drive.

Ken
