It wasn't as miserable as earlier in the week as John Domico, Tom Cali, Lance Bland, Judd Michael, Greg Dillon, George Lesieutre, Tom Hilands, Costas Maranas, Dana Todd, Frank Zaffino, Kevin Becker, Rich Harter, Ron Cunfer, Miles Smith, Michael Goldfine, newcomer Elijiah Shekinah, Joel Niemann, Tara Murray, Rob Shaver, Jamie Volkert, Mark Traband, Marty Mazur headed for the track.
