A long day with a short story

Watkins Glen is know for rain and fog. Sunday morning when we arrived at the track it was pouring rain. This lasted for an hour, and as soon as the rain stopped the fog rolled in. The fog was so thick they deemed it too dangerous to race and would put everything on hold.
Waited all morning, no one went on the track. In the early afternoon the Can-am cars went on track in the fog. We were next. They lined us up in the hot pits and then the fog got heavier, so we waited for a half-hour. Finally they canceled our race and we did just a couple of parade laps around the track.

Having fun in the garage, waiting for the fog to lift.

Grid girls again, I'm getting spoiled.

With no race, they used yesterday's qualifying race for finishing position. That gave me 2nd in class.
