    Cold day for June, with temps not even getting into the 60's. 1 blown crossplane R1, 2 holes thru the cases.

    A short ride yesterday to pickup Macgyver repair parts for a coolant leak in my vanagon.

    Oil get on the track from the blown engine? Just wondering how the track crew dealt with it.
    Looks like FUN!
    I've been recovering from hernia surgery, not going on track again until after July 4th.

      It happened on the outside portion of the front straight. He heard it pop & immediately leaned it up against hot pit wall.
      I think the undertray caught most of it, as I didn't see powder for oil clean up

      I had 2 of those with window screen. Avoid laughing, coughing sneezing if possible.

                Very fortunate to have this as a 65 mile round drip ride from my driveway:

                Up past Tortilla Flat at the end of the pavement on the Apache Trail in AZ. Going to be glorious when they finish paving all the way to Roosevelt Dam.

                Our group was the Goldwing, my GS and my buddy's (taking the picture) 86 VFR. Behind the Goldwing was a S1000XR.

                Went solo today, but yesterday was a GS1100E, an '86 VFR and a Goldwing.

                Managed to get out before the temps got over 85°F. Home long before temps hit triple digits.
