Well it has been a bright, sunny, breezy day for parking and tech. The pits have been slowly filling up all day. Here are some pics from today:

Rod Lightner's old car? That car's been around! Think Lynwood Daugherty had it last time I saw it.

For those who are unfortunate first round runner-ups at Charlotte, if you happen to lose early, and are travelling home through/near Pittsburgh PA, there is a S/SS race there Sunday, if you feel like stopping, we would be happy to have you!

Thanks for taking the time to post all the great pictures!

you are welcome, David!

It looks like it is going to be another beautiful day here in Charlotte. Right now it is only 58 degrees and we run in an hour. Stock has 2 runs this morning, then into class. B/SA should have 5 or 6 cars, I think. I guess we will all know for sure after that first run. It is going to be a busy day, so more later.

Larry Hill · 09-14-2012, 09:08 AM

44 Stockers made the first run and boy is it fast! There were a lot of uh-ohs after that run. 5 or 6 were over 1 second under. Up towards the top were Gary Richards, Robert Dean, Keith Lynch, Charley Downing, and Joe Santangelo. DRC should have the results soon. DRC schedule is incorrect for this morning. Stock gets another qualifying run before class starts.

46 cars made the 2nd pass. We run class after alcohol who is running now. Starting line here is crazy--some are hooking like crazy, then the one behind them will spin. Rick Baehr almost turned over Cradduck's car. If anyone posts a picture, be sure to check it out.
