We made our hotel reservations for Great Bend and for the drive back and forth (approx. 1100 miles from Tucson). I'm going to try over-driving my blower by 10% instead of one-to-one this year. It was worth a quarter of a second on my ET to go from 10% under to one-to-one. Also, I'm going to try the pro tree this time. So, we'll see. I hope the weather cools off before then.

This race falls on our fifty-first anniversary weekend this year. Can't think of a better way to celebrate.
