Houston Region Hoedown Double Rational

[James Rogerson]

Saturday Qualifying was perfect. Then it rained. Indy and Indy Lights have been running for three weeks and the track was pretty tacky.

I ran HP and then left the Honda at Black Flag and got into the FF for that race. Both in the rain on slicks Saturday. Not a lot of fun, but young Andrew Robertson gave us all a lesson in dancing in the rain. He and Austin Snader were three miles ahead on a 2.38 mile track. Awesome driving by them both.

Qualifying was awesome, cold and dry and fast. Everyone was under track records.
Race it got cloudy and damp and the speed went away. Still fast, but not as fast as in the morning.
