[quote="Bubba PV"]That's funny. Six months before I went to masters worlds (1997) in South Africa, I found a guy over there who researched sunrise/sunset, temperature and humidity averages, etc. for me. We're all sick but at least we're in good company!! LOL![/quote
Bubba,
UNCC is a beautiful facility (UCS Pits). The winds at that time of the year will be calm (very warm). You can run from either north or south. They have two pits on each end of the runway, but will probably use the pit in the middle. Everyone in Charlotte is very friendly and makes you feel welcome. The only thing UNCC is missing is a good coastal breeze which I wouldn’t mind having every once in a while.
