Sh.. happens brother. Frank Hawley has been running his last classes there after running at Bradenton while they were grinding the new track surface. So yes, I’d say they had confidence all systems were go but Murphy is alive and well everywhere.

It should be easy enough. We would run drag tractor down and test all increments while dragging track. Tower would send a test print first then tractor ET next with increments. Sometimes not all the increments would work due to the ground squirrels liked our wiring. Poured gas down the holes and lit them up. Stopped the problem for awhile.

Hey guys, we had a late start as others have mentioned. They had a problem with the printer, and one scoreboard. Super Stock is running now and Super Comp has been called to the lanes. Lots of cars going fast here, it should be a mine shaft day. I will post later as the internet is very slow, posting photos will take some time.

The internet is still very slow, but I do have q2 stock and q1 super stock. We got a late start and a oil down from starting line to the finish line. They called super stock up for q2, but I don't here anything going down the track, we may be done for the night. I will be back later with a few shots from the staging lanes.

Photos from the staging lanes....

Tomorrow we start at 8am with Super Street followed by first round class Stock. First round class counts as a qualifier. Temps in the morning will be cool, mid 40's.
