"Live From" Four-Wide Nationals
Hey All,
We pulled in this morning, number 52, there are about 75 rigs here now. Its warm, 85 and sunny. The long range forecast is for rain Friday afternoon, the rest of the weekend looks nice. The first lot is now full, they should start parking opposite of us. There is class here for Stock, but with the weather on Friday it may not happen. |

Re: "Live From" Four-Wide Nationals
Don't want the rain either, but I'll be there bright and early for the qualifiers and hopefully it will hold off till after 4th round of class. Need some good wheel-standing pictures. If not this weekend, may have to double dip and go to Atlanta next Friday. Hope to see you there.

Re: "Live From" Four-Wide Nationals
Good morning all,
It will be another warm day, temps in the lower 80's. Rain is still forecast for Friday, lets hope they are wrong. The rest of the weekend still looks good. They have not started parking us yet, there are about 125 rigs stacked so far. I attached a photo from one of the Class Racer sponsors,Tasca Ford. Carl Tasca was the winner of the NMCA Factory Super Cars in Atlanta a few weeks ago, Its the same as the Factory Stock Showdown class in NHRA. It looks to be another good showing with 30 cars competing for 16 spots. I wonder how much the Cobra Jet's and COPO's will slow down from the recent rule change. |

Re: "Live From" Four-Wide Nationals
Good morning, well after a short hiatus for some medical issues I'm back! I'm still not 100% after surgery 2 weeks ago but I hated to miss Charlotte being it has always been good to me. I'm about to leave for the short trip to Charlotte now and will be there around 3 or 4 so look for me on the back 40. I have my family with me this weekend so my reporting will be spotty but I will help when I can.

Re: "Live From" Four-Wide Nationals
That's what I heard also.
Well it looks like everyone is parked, it started out slow but by mid afternoon it look as if it would all get done. I heard that had a small parking crew, and that's why the they got off to a slow start. I found some cars out, but most had the cars put away. Stock it out first at 8am tomorrow pending weather, forecast is still rain tomorrow. |

Re: "Live From" Four-Wide Nationals
Stock got their Q1 in and there looks to be enough break in the weather that we will get class in also. SS has been called to the lanes now.
