It was definitely friggen cold in there though, homeboy's fingers were numb towards the end of each shession.
I done told chu, the times were off pace after they opened the door. Chu said his hands were numb, so I let him borrowed my PRO gloves and he dropped his time by a second.

^True story.

Looking at my times now, I improved from 34.48 in the first session, to 32.19 in my last. My fastest was the session where everyone's times were slower.

You definitely should have came out to this one, not many people braved the weather to do CTD for Karts and the PCD crew dominated the Karts and the entire venue.

If PRO means your fastest lap is still slower then err body else even while you're improving, then I don't want to be PRO.

Chu rely on things like sticky tires to get fast times. Take that away and Chu is lost. I hope CTD is like 10° so everyone passes your a$$! I will dominate Chu in DE.

I think your theory is toast. Reality is Pete and Chu ran faster times their last heat, you just went slower for whatever reason. My guess is tires really had nothing to do with it, cold in there the entire night. Maybe the colder temp gained a few HP in the karts?
