Yep, flawlessly. Arrived at 9pm last night and was issued #126. It's now after noon and I can't even see the entry gate.

They must be having fun in the Queen City tonight because this thread is awfully quiet.

Re: "Live" from Charlotte 2019
I pulled the yellow knob at 2pm. 6 hours after they started. #126. I have no problem with the 2 or 3 people that were parking us. They did the best they could.
It's like staying in a toxic relationship, no one to blame but yourself. We all do this because we love it, but corporate greed and ridiculous penny pinching sure takes alot of the fun out of it. Pretty sick of being pissed off before you even start racing. Last edited by Dan Fletcher; 10-11-2019 at 06:57 AM. Reason: Lack of basic math skills |

If you are there check these cars out, from a 54 chevy that averaged 8.973 to the number 2 finisher 67 4 door chevelle 3,400lbs that averaged 8.539, These are the top finishing racers that participated in the 8.50 street power adder class at Drag week 2019. They have to do time runs at 4 different tracks and drive the cars to each track, about 750 miles this year. They take the best run at each track and average those and closest to 8.50 is the overall class winner for the week. under 8.50 does not count. Number 1 finisher averaged 8.520 number 8's average was 8.973 Here is link for more info https://www.hotrod.com/articles/nhra...H4sikMrfkLvEc8 |

Re: "Live" from Charlotte 2019
We rolled in at 1 and are parked in the holding lot on top of the hill. Probably around 20 of us here, I got everything ready to roll out in the morning and haul *** to register and hopefully have time to make the 1st hit if they get me in and parked quick enough. After reading Dan's post I'm not too confident about that now.
