"Live From" Maple Grove, NHRA Nationals

Hello from Maple Grove Raceway, what a deference a year makes. The weather for a change... its not raining. The ground is solid as Maple Grove has not seen much rain in the past few weeks. The forecast calls for some rain on Thursday and Saturday, but it does not look like a wash out. With only 242 sportsman cars, getting this race done on time should not be a problem.

We are in the stacking area and there are about 100 rigs here. Parking starts at 8am and unlike Indy it should go smooth. The parking crew was marking off the pit area and we should all get parked in good areas and have it done in a timely manner.

An interesting note on the schedule, Super Stock will be out first on Thursday for Q1, Stockers get to sleep late for a change.
