Live from Rockingham LODRS and Natty Open
Well this weekend marks the end of the Lucas Oil season here in D2. I'm sure we will also see a good amount of D1 cars this weekend as everyone is trying to get those last few points to improve their division standings and even win a championship. Weather looks good for Friday qualifying but Saturday has a really good chance for some rain and looks like will create some trouble for the schedule. Sunday is supposed to be the 1/8 mile National Open race and Friday night is slated for the Moser Shootout race. So there there is a full schedule of racing to try to get in this weekend and should be good car counts so we'll have to see if the D2 crew can get it all in.
Today is parking and registration and also T&T that will run from 1 to 6. Should be fun as always and alot of people's last chance to sit and bench race for the year. The gate staff will be on hand selling tech cards until 1 am so you got plenty of time to get here!

Re: Live from Rockingham LODRS and Natty Open
Just a little update, the place is packed and rigs have been steadily rolling in all night. It's quite chilly, low 50's with a DA of around 300 and a good barometer so it's going to be fast tomorrow. Be careful guys and gals!

I am sure a lot of us look forward to seeing the first 396 in B/SA go into the "nines". Who will be the first?

Didn't David Ficacci hold the record at 9.91 in his '69 B/SA 396 Camaro?

Re: Live from Rockingham LODRS and Natty Open
Well something new this morning, we were in the staging lanes and got sent back to the pits with the sun shining bright. Super Street ran first then they had started running Stock and no one could get down the track. High or low horsepower it didn't seem to matter, I saw nobody get any traction. Stay tuned.....
