That rides has got to suck in Oct. We race into Oct. in WI and it gets a litle chilly when the sun goes down.

What is the wind chill factor at 45* with 163 mph winds?

In the driving suit it isn't a problem, surprisingly.

100hp shot. It is set up for up to 300 but I am little leery of it with that short WB (110"). Runs a best of 8.69 @ 157 w/o the juice.
