Humidity down to 50% tonight at 72.4* and the tires were chattering at every turn! NEEDS TIRE WORK for sure! My body isn't happy and my times tonight weren't all that good.

Notes-Did not give the box stock a try this month since I was enjoying the Atomic on this track. Cut my time down considerably this month as I started around 8 minutes. Wish I had more time to put more laps down, but summer time.

Hard to believe it's been six months since I last participated in the Challenge, but with starting a new job in February after being retired for 2 years and the brief illness and passing of my dad, I've had too many other priorities. I didn't have as much time this month to get runs in as I used to when I was retired, but I was able to significantly beat my times from April 2020 when we ran a very similar layout. After Eric beat my best Box Stock time of 329.5 mid month, I tried about 10 more times to improve but couldn't, so I will have to settle for other than first. I only got a couple of runs in with some of my other cars early in the month, but will post those times too to see how I did. Results incoming...

Notes-I had a lot of difficulty with thermal shutdown on this layout. I sprayed out and relubed motor twice, but it would still happen if I didn't let the motor cool down between runs. I also noticed I was faster and more consistent with the less punch AAAs. Consistency this run of 96.06% wasn't the best I had, but this was the quickest time.
