Not worth repeating.....
As I had tried both lanes, and neither were any good, both lanes had
been cleaned after being oiled down by parts failure by other racers.
first run was aborted........as I had to lift (finished with a 17.88)
second run was a little better, managed to find a little bite......16.30
NO ONE was getting the times they usually had,as I talked to a couple guy's
and they were off the usual time by about a second
