Rolls Report November 9 & 10 : Rain Dance

Posted on | by Dan Becerra | Leave a Comment on Rolls Report November 9 & 10 : Rain Dance

Thanks again to those who joined us for Homecoming and Mini-Raceday last week. We hope all of you enjoyed reviewing some actual buggy data! This weekend had two smooth days of rolls with no buggy incidents. The most notable thing was a little rain Sunday, and the most notable thing about that was how notable it was (as Pittsburgh is in the midst of a drought)!
