1st track day of the year

Looks like temp are going to be in the 90's with some humidity. The last couple years all my track days have been nice with weather in the 70's.

Anything extra I can do to help combat the heat?

I have fresh fluids topped off just bedded in the new pads last night.

At least the 3r's I put on this years should warmup quickly and have great traction.

A lot of water for yourself. More than you think you need. You're highly modded so I'd check your oil temp/pressure, air fuel gauges more often than usual.

Nice.

yes I noticed quite a few Camaros, last couple times there have only been maybe a couple.

Going to be a hot day, just hoping for no rain or I will need to switch tires.

Yeah, don't want to jinx anything but I think our cars should handle it well, maybe 1 or 2 fewer hot laps during a session than <75 degrees.
Me too, really hoping for no rain, it'll be my last track day for the year so I'd love to end with some PBs.
