Anyone doing the NASA event at Buttonwillow next month? Wondering how bad the heat gets there in June.
I had 16 laps for the entire day, and they weren't always clean. I don't think I had a single session that ended on a checkered flag - with 3 sessions ending on waving black flags, and then I got black flagged on my last session out.

People going off happens all the time, but this is the first time I've seen it end an entire session so often, and I don't think it always Speed Ventures drivers fault; at least in my sessions, I saw a couple Radicals off track, or spun out.
