2004 Speed Week - August 18

August 18 2004 Wednesday got off to a slow start, wind storms the night before had made a mess of the course markers and pits. It was a long way into the morning before the pits opened and we headed to staging.	August 18 2004 Working on a Teva Tan while staging is easy the only requirement is plenty of sun screen.
August 18 2004 Ted Allan Driving, Don Siewert providing shade This would turn out to be our fastest run 198.915 mph .	August 18 2004 After Teds run we had time to prep 1149 for another run and move it to pre-stage. Late in the afternoon though it began to rain at the starting area, while remaining sunny and warm 3 miles away in the pit. We pushed 1149 back to the pit for the night.
August 18 2004 Brad Heintz was piloting N49 back to the pit and earned a salty shower for his trouble.	August 17 2004 "Never Winter Driven" On the way off the salt Wednesday we encountered Toronto winter street conditions near the starting area.
