Watching on NHRATV, these intermissions are horrible! Just play music and leave the stupid crap out of racing!

That’s one thing I like about the updated NHRA.TV broadcasting, tune in late and then easily advancing past the stupid parts. With all the cameras they bring I’d really like to hear audio and video on the last 100 feet.

Weather was about the same as Friday. Same headwind with a much better barometer. The schedule was doing pretty good until a Funny car had a near 2 hour oil down. hard to complain when the weather is perfect for socializing. Specially when you're pitted with Paul Wong. I think I attended conversation meetings with three different division reps. Had to squeeze in a nap after.

As normal cream came to the top. Going to have to start drinking my coffee black. Amazing spot racing or what ever that is. Have to learn that method some day. Good job Kyle.

Weather looks great this weekend high in the 80s.

Pleasantly surprised to see DRC is posting results. Will be interesting to see the car counts.

Can someone verify that Caleb Hansen is at Vegas this weekend. He was in New Jersey last weekend at the Division 1 race there. That is some trip.

He is not among the 105 racers that made the first TT for Stock.

Ron, Caleb is there running Super Stock with the Dart.

52 6826 SS/H Caleb Hansen, Monclova OH, '68 Dart 10.354 10.68 -0.326

Always enjoyed talking to him and his Dad. I think that is the same Dart that they set a record with in Stock at Woodburn some years ago.

Q-1 we had a 15mph head wind. Made some great wheelies but not so good on the E.T.. Q-2 just a slight tailwind. I personally picked up .11 and over 2mph.
