Hello Everyone.
This has been a very cold and delayed spring. On April 15th, we had
winds over 40 mph, and we also had 1/4 of the lake covered in ice.
These are brutal racing condition.
Now in the middle of May, the warm temperatures have arrived. The
Midwest Speed Quest is open, and we are ready for some
competitors.
