Thanks CCRA and Fayetteville Motorsports Park ,,,I had a blast today. Even though i was not on Michael's 1st round clown list , I did lose to Branden peterson ,He was 2 above to my 1 above, you know what that means " HOLE SHOT"..My son was 004 red to Mark Young 1st round. Good turn-out for this race ... See ya next week in Maryland at Budd's Creek IHRA double pro- am....Checking out now to go talk to race car and see if it can talk me into being as good as it is....(it's always my fault) lol

we spent the whole day testing with my car. run out of gear at the 1,000ft marker and run a 10.63@104. Car ran ok through the 1/8.

Found out that Radial tires do not like a transbreak @4400.....Blew the tires right off. I also realized I kept going in too deep. Im used to foot breaking the Stocker going in really really shallow. I was pre stage, stage, then hit the break on the 2-step and it would rock forward. Kept wonding why my 60ft were so off. Gotta get re-focused to the car and get ready for Piedmont.

Michael- just wanted to say thanks again for the killer sticker package! Really looks perfect on the car!

Was also really good to see Joe Collins racing, The Riners, the Strickland crew. Always a good time with some good friends!

Nice job on the multi-tasking today Mr. Beard. Great coverage and very commendable racing.
Congrats to Brian and Mike, they were on their game all day.
And Thanks Scott Tilley an excellent program with CCRA. Cant wait till the next one.

it's 2 seperate cars. I drove a G/CM stocker last year, and made my personal car a SS car.

great field of sportsman racers, had an awesome time Sunday. Special thanks to Mike Ismay for the opportunity to drive his car and to Mark Young. Should have "Annie's Song "together for next race @ Roxboro. Scott, you ran a great program and The team at Fayetteville Motorsports had an awesome prepped track. It was great to see so many friends after a long winter. Michael, nice photos and great reporting.
