We started cleaning in the original location they told us. Then they moved us under the shade trackside - MUCH BETTER!

Tuesday - Valve Cover Races
A local New Orleans Corvette Club hosted the Valve Cover races. A very short / steep track - no drop start :(
Once the Time Trials were over indoors, they moved it outdoors for the endurance / long distance races (it was unpublished as well)
one valve cover went a distance as far as the grass allowed it - check Friday's Award section for the answer
