I hate the sound of that 2 hour quiet time from 10-noon on Sundays....
Man, that's alot of downtime....
I guess that means we'll have to start running at 7:00am, and finish at 7:00pm on Sundays...

I understand.
As you know most tracks are down for an hour on Sundays so an extra hour is not the end of the world particularly if we can start an hour earlier
Are you and I the only ones happy about this??
BTW, how did the Cooljoy work out? I couldn't get mine to work at the track until I realized that the fuse was blown. Replaced it and it is good to go!

It worked well for a few laps, then all the water was gone. Under high load corners I could see the water spraying out between the lid and the cooler, it was hitting my oil lines inside the car and steaming.
So after a few laps, all the water had sloshed out, and I was left with nothing.... Wearing a 3 layer fire suit, with water sitting in the cool-shirt, not circulating, on a 102 degree day...

I promise not to tell everyone why the water sloshed out...

OK, since its just us 3 on this thread that nobody else seems to care about....
I had the lid on the cooler placed in the manner in which it would normally be placed when you purchase a cooler from the store.
With the directions down inside the cooler, thus I wasn't making use of the foam seal...
Funny though that it was the 3rd time I'd used it, and only the first time I'd experienced a problem in using it that way....
(its OK to say I'm slow and dumb) (I'm also poor and defective)

I was wondering if you had the foam seal but this explains it.
Now as far as being slow & dumb it must be an off track thing because I've never heard anyone complain about you being a rolling chicane!

That's better...
Now as far as the 25K I'm afraid you're on your own...
