Some final thoughts on 2014 Winternationals. In stock there were 29 red lights, 3 heads up,5 singles and 7 no shows. There was only 58 races because of the singles and no shows. almost half were decided by the red light All the heads up were in A/SA There were 10 A/SA in the field. Last years World Finals had 9 A/SA in the field with no heads up. Super Stock had 23 red lights, 3 heads up, 4 singles and 3 no shows.

What is your wife's last name ? I also used to race with folks from the St Stephen area.

I'm sure it wasn't any of Rose's family, but her last name is Scott. It's amazing seeing families like the Howes and Armstrongs traveling as far as they do to race! Maybe I will meet you this year.

I am sorry to disappoint you. I broke and was unable to race. I was also looking forward to that race!

That race would have been one for the books. Depending on dial-ins the handicap would have been about 7 seconds. You would be a speck on the dragstrip when John launched and began his hunt. It would have made a GREAT You Tube video.

Thanks for the stats.I thought the racing was pretty boring because of so many redlights.Glad to see somebody keep track of them.
