"Live" from the 2012 US Nationals in Indy!
 
We are on our way! The only good thing about getting beat early at Bowling Green is heading up early to Indy! We should be there by about 1:30. For those of you leaving BG, it is about a 4 hour drive. They were supposed to begin stacking at noon today, so all those in line should be about cleared out by the time we get there. Lots of rigs had already pulled out before we did this morning from Beech Bend.

We are looking forward to a good time, lots of good race cars and racing, and seeing old friends again!

Oh Buckner Boys racing--hope you have lots of gas for that margaritta machine! See ya'll there!

We're here! We're here! #79! As we were coming down Crawfordsville Road, Larry guessed we would be #100 and I said #79. He couldn't believe I got it on the nose! So do I win a prize?? Oh well.

Jack, I will tell Redman when I see him.

More later!

Patsy/Larry you guys are great for always posting the "Live From" coverage. This year my son and I are coming to Indy and I am looking forward to thanking you in person.
As Bob Frey once said "Stockers are way cool".

Patsy I'm excited that you and Larry are there! I'm leaving tomorrow late afternoon to at least get way north of Atlanta so I don't have to deal with commuter traffic.

I'll be getting to Indy sometime Tuesday afternoon....will pack an extra bottle of wine!

Hey thanks, Dennis! Those brandy slushes were really good!

Tim, come on by and introduce yourself!

Karen, it would be nice to share a glass of wine with you! In proper stemware, of course.

A few notes from here--They have started filling up the back lot before it got dark. They are up to probably #130 or more. I didn't walk around the fence to see just what # they were at. Stock entries are now down to 167 and will probably be falling more. Jeff Teuton's son Joseph is staying home with his wife and family because of the hurricane that is due to arrive Tues or Wed. Also John Duzac has pulled out of line and headed home this evening. Jeff's cars are going to be driven by Larry Stewart in Stock and Jeff Strickland in super stock. I believe the Hebert's are watching the weather pretty closely, too. I was talking to Rock Haas earlier and he said Don Fezell messed up his car a little at Milan this weekend. I don't know if it has knocked him out or not. Also Drew Skillman's car blew an engine at Milan while being driven by his dad, Bill.

The local Indy parking crew has been friendlier and nicer than I can ever remember in the past!

Well more later. It is dark now and most everyone is back in their motorhomes for the evening.

Hey Stephen, you can just pay us back with some of those good Louisiana pralines!!

Its wet. Enjoying Bob & Tom on the radio. I just hope we don't need a tow truck to get parked, but they need the rain.
