When MQ Jimmy O texted me to make sure I was still good for today…I was taken back. The Daytona 500 was next week. I convinced Mayhem to hand over the keys to me on V Day so I could show the Pax some love…however as often the case my mind was a little fuzzy and apparently never updated the calendar. I guess that's what I get for using it! So, Daytona was to run 1 week early…but hey…there is always that qualifying thing right?
Arrived at the race track…also known as DPK to do a little "prep and to plant the OST Shovel Flag. Constant flybys by Black Eyed Pea and his 2.0 as they were training…for something. Funny how he did not want to join. Couple of extra credit brothers in Tweetsie and Jimmy O arrived. Then there was Late Night…first time I think meeting him??? And as we waiting for the headlights to roll in…we were left disappointed. I guess this workout precedes itself…I know it is not my repuation anymore…so had to be. But Jimmy O and Late Night never experienced the spectacle WIB that YHC created (and should be in the Lexicon I might add). I promised it would not disappoint. Here is a testament of the turns that transpired during the race…um workout.

I should have known things would be weird this morning when it took me 10 minutes to tape three stupid flyers. I officially have the worst tape in the world as it split on instant contact with my fingers…but I did succeed.
4 Pax? Mad Sci? Undercover of the rain? I guess there were some studs Qing…or people were afraid…as they should have been.
There should have been 5 Pax present. Late night tweet 9 Lives was an HC for a standard. Little later…Cobains for stomach pain. I thought it was gas jokingly…it was his appendix. That is some scary shit. Successful surgery this afternoon and all our brothers were lifting him up in prayer…speedy recovery brother…
There was very little mumble chatter for the most part as the huffing and puffing took over. But Tweetsie best line of the day as I called him out for his airborne mind bender…"Hey, you did say modify as needed." Zinger. Got me on that one.
Jimmy O- glad to have you back in the gloom and that you are feeling better with your bout with the flu…great to see you out there.
Late Night- Pleasure meeting you brother…Great work out there and way to push through.
