I seem to remember an air hose and compressor in the little shack on the left as you enter the paddock. But I'm not positive. Ann Keller has a compressor in her trailer..... Ask and I'm sure she'll let you use it.

That's what Glenn said too, the shack, etc., so I'm gonna go with Ryan and your info.

I'll keep that in mind if need be.

Glenn used to carry a scuba tank for us, but it was a waste of time and effort at VIR, so it's up at the lake.

I was trying to decide if I needed to take our only small compressor but that would leave the Wife without air for a really slow leak. She'd likely be just fine with it maxed to start with, but this way no problem.

Steve

PS: Ya'll have a nice weekend. We're gonna try if the dang weather will just cooperate.

There is a compressor in the tech shed and the hose is hooked up outside. It's typically used to adjust tires but it handles tools just as well.
