Live from Indy Fall Cassic

Mike Fuller · 10-17-2014, 07:54 PM

We arrived about 12;30 this afternoon after a uneventful cruise from the Detroit area. I bought some Murphy's gas on the way down and MPG on my truck drop 12% from the Sunoco that I had bought at my local station. I will never buy that junk again.

I got into the test and tune and got to make two passes. Barometer was very low. The dry bulb for the first run was 68 degree's and the wind was mostly a cross tail at 8 to 18 MPH. The wind seemed to be always changing direction. There was a constant stream of cars going down the track with no down time that I noticed. It was quite tough to interpret the information because of conditions,but we will spend some time tonight studying the data to see if we made any progress.

Tomorrow promises to be cooler temps and better barometer. The local weather is calling for the area's first frost Sunday morning. Dialing Sunday morning will prove to be interesting.

I hoping to have some pic's to post tomorrow.

Well congrats to Clay Arnett for (what I believe is) the fastest stock eliminator pass of all time! 8.46 @ 160

If the numbers are correct; that is the fastest Stock Eliminator run ever. When Don Fezell ran 8.50@158 last week at the Dutch Classic, he was the fastest Stocker ever and I thought that his numbers would last for a while. Guess I was wrong!
If I am not mistaken any car that runs faster than 8.50 needs a roll cage; does Clay have one in his car?

66 Chevy II car number 3010 blue and black paint job. Just listen for the car leaving at 9500 on the starting line.
