Yea, 10-15mph headwind all day. DA was between +500 to -200ish.

I did have a new best mph - 139.83.

DA was better at MIR today plus it's lower altitude than VMP. For whatever reason, I hooked better at MIR. It was pretty crowded though and only got 5 passes in. Maybe I should give Capital a try. I'm still a little rusty. Total of 12 passes now in 13 months.

30% chance... fingers crossed...

But 0% chance on Sunday for the Corvette Club Wars... what a ghey name... If they had actually reached out to the area clubs and got some grudge matches going it would be nice... but no... lets just cross our fingers and see what happens...
