That's sure Classic...Sock Hop...Stuff...

And 'Summertime immediately makes me think of Short Shorts (yeah, sure, but also the recording)...

Did you know that Bill Dalton, who was VSCDA's Chief of Tech for years and years, was one of the 'original Jersey Boys'.  He was the guitarist in the Royal Teens, who's biggest hit was Short Shorts, followed later by a Doo Wop version of Believe..  The Royal Teens' keyboardist, was Bobbie Gaudio, who went on to join Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.  At barely sixteen years of age, Bill Dalton had an incredible early 1950s Rock and Roll history touring the country with some of the earliest Rock and Rolls stars.  He also appeared in at least two movies, playing with the band.  He wrote a series of articles about that period in his life which ran in VSCDA's newsletter.  That made great reading for those of us who were teens in the 1950s..

Dalton was a close friend, and spent a great deal of effort trying to convey a rough, tough 'Joisey image'.  But down deep he was an old softie.  I recall one time he took out his wallet to get something to show Bob Wismer and I, and a whole bunch of Holy Cards fell out.  That was no Big Deal for us, as we had suspected as much all along.  He had a collection of guitars, including a precious (to him) Chet Atkins Gibson, and a state of the art recording studio in his home.  He died suddenly (heart attack) and far too early.  Even at the end of his life he was still providing new 'guitar riffs' to folks active in the industry.

Oldie but goodie. Most of us are old enough to remember this song.

What     are you all talking about? It is going to be  101 here today and the     humidity is 96% this morning. I’m coming to enjoy the cool weather? I have a     cool suit and cooler for the Beandito Endurance car and I’m leaving it at     home.

All     kidding aside, it’s hot down here. Sunday I drove the car around the     neighborhood to bed in new brake pads and generated 210 degrees on the temp     gauge. It was 102 out and I have to go slow and quiet to avoid “Nextdoor”     comments. It has me a little worried but I left it running in the shop for a     while and it didn’t overheat. Temps in the 80’s are my     friend!

I’m     leaving later today and if all goes well the Texas car will be there mid day     Thursday. Save me a nice spot!

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.
