A big THANK YOU to all who have posted pictures, info and comments about the biggest race that NHRA has. I have a few friends there and a big shout out to them as well.

I have some more of teardown, but I think Ken's are better. But here they are anyway!

This is Calvert this morning where he stopped right in front of where we were sitting just before the eighth mile. Haven't heard what happened, but he was not leaking any fluids!

Wong and Loge

Larry Hill · 08-31-2018, 01:08 PM

Wong and Hale

Dillly, Dilly Gilley

Matt Welker E/S Eric Wingo!!

And there is Matt at the front of the car!

Black mustang on left in Carson that was protested.
Drag Pak is Luke Ulbehor

Mustang blue on bottom is Mike Fuller.
White Varsity Ford is Pustelny.
These are the counter protested.

When we drove by a bit ago, Larry Gilley was leaving and a car that had Rinke on it was pulling in. I didn't get for sure who it was but it was a white Copo!

So Gilley is good for sure!

Welker, Wong and Hale were all putting back together. So I assume all of them are good. Don;t know about any others.

I think all the Mustangs are pulling a rod and piston.

BTW, since when can you show up for teardown with the manifold off and just say "Oh, yeah, this one that is already pulled off is the one that we ran yesterday"??? Things that make you go hummmmm!!

WHO got away with that? They are supposed to be sealed the night before.

Larry, who did that? I thought breaking the seal was an automatic DQ??
