Re: Live from the Atco Doubleheader-NHRA Lucas Oil Series
Unofficial top of the heap today -- Gary Parker H/SA --11.07 and Jim Boudreau B/SA at 10.07 -Lee Zane made a nice pass around lunch time 10.70 in D/SA- it was pretty sporty out there early but many couldn't get any grip at all .Steve Colabro was one of those -he had his drop dead beautiful early L-88 Corvette out but just spun 'em up bigtime .Sunny with a slight headwind all day - temps never got past low sixties -but still a nice Fall day .More later ..........

Hey Jack! I take 1 cream in my coffee. See you in the AM. Keep up the good work. You're like a regular Walter Cronkite, only faster.

Re: Live from the Atco Doubleheader-NHRA Lucas Oil Series
All in all a pretty good day here at Atco -- most got as many runs as they wanted - no one can say they didn't have a chance to tune up before tomorrow's race .Speaking of tomorrow's race its to start early -- 9am sharp we'll start with SuperStreet and move thru all the eliminators with their one and only time trial and then into final eliminations -- probably by noon if things go right .
Mr.Warehime -- I too take one cream in my coffee but I like my coffee with donuts -- very fresh ones ......... WJ -- Its plenty chilly here already ............. Billy -- when you get a moment give me a shout . I'll check in later -- "Uncle Buck" has a pork loin on the grill .................

Re: Live from the Atco Doubleheader-NHRA Lucas Oil Series
Don't like this at all -- 6:30 and its still dark out- we all know what season is coming here in the Northeast and I for one am not looking forward to it .This morning chilly is not the word I would use - its downright cold at 46 degrees here with the high today to reach only mid-sixties .
Many were wondering why things ended early yesterday -- it happened because the NHRA officials and track management decided the track got way too cold to hold high HP cars in the grove and most thought this was a prudent move --the racers who were in the lanes waiting lost only one run at the most . Many teams arriving this morning and with some leaving last night believe it or not there is room for them - the place is full but I've seen it much worse -- the "cluster" that was expected hasn't happened and so far it looks like we'll be OK ...........later . Sterlin' -- my numbers yesterday were nothing to brag about ! ! !
