Hearing that No. 100 TJ Flores is now on his last lap and headed for another victory in the Caliente 250. If he wins today, he will become a repeat winner after taking the last victory here in Caliente.

Have also heard that some drivers have gotten off the course only to become captured by one of the trees in the high desert. Between the trees and the water crossings, the Caliente 250 has countless challenges; not to mention the final quarter mile down Oh My God Hill beind the bar in Caliente.

We are now experiencing some pretty strong gusts of wind in Caliente. The gusts are heading in from the West.
