Re: "Live from" Topeka LODRS D5-5
Good morning all! Day 1 is officially underway here at HPT. With Top Alcohol here this weekend, it's hard to tell whether or not there are more Stk/SS cars. SST has been called to the lanes, so we are not too far off from Stock's first hit. They are batting 2nd today, and SS batting cleanup. Two hits each today so long as the schedule holds, we'll be done around 1 or 2. Maybe earlier. So the heat won't be as much of a factor as it will be tomorrow. As of now, we get a hit in the morning, then on to eliminations. Stay tuned and check DRC for more info and results.
Again, a special thanks to Phil Unruh for providing the sponsorship for coverage here this weekend. Gotta love the heat!! Time to race!!

Re: "Live from" Topeka LODRS D5-5
I had no idea we had any fans.....but if I did I would have brought them and mounted them inside this trailer. I will never, ever, ever, not never, ever complain about Bakersfield heat again. If you ever hear a whimper out of me about 107 degrees at The Patch you have my permission to slap me upside the head. The last time I took two showers in one day I was still single and stink suppression was my highest priority. On another note, the stocker is running right where we hoped, and if I can figure out how to drive we should be at least respectable next week.

Re: "Live from" Topeka LODRS D5-5
Well, our weekend is done, unexpectedly. Dropped a lifter roller retaining pin and it found its way between the lobe and roller. Didn't break anything, but wiped the roller and the lobe pretty good. Regrind and get ready for Earlville!

Mike. I saw where he qualified. Knew something was wrong. At least you aren't too far from home.

Re: "Live from" Topeka LODRS D5-5
Dad and I received very good news today, however. Dad has found a donor for a kidney, so will be getting a second chance on life real soon!
Thanks to those who have provided encouragement this past year. He's been through hell and back, a heart attack,kidney failure, dialysis 3 days a week,still working in a 100+ degree shop and still loves to strap himself in the Monte.
