Julie, with the sun out all day and temps in the low 90's the track is not in the best shape. Bucky has not made a good pass. I will get a picture for you in a little while. Here are some pics from Top and Jr Stock. Not the best camera or operated.

Actually, there is some good camera work there. In that one shot, it looks like you can see tire smoke coming of the Hawk/Bailey/Biondo car at what? 40 feet out! Indeed spun'm pretty bad.
Left lane was tricky for some yesterday also, although Iacono still managed launch his car into those giant wheelstands and then stick the landing.

Keep up the good reporting and thanks!

I don't have the details, but I know we won both Jr. Stock and Top Stock. Hopefully someone has the two tickets or saw the race as I wasn't there.

Julie, I talk to Bucky for a bit. He couldn't get down the track. He was on and off the throttle and still manage to go a 149 with a 8 mph headwind, not sure what the et was. Here are some pics. Car looks much better than the pictures show.

Nelson Grimes is a bad *** artist. Best of luck to everyone.

Thanks, Kenny. That's a Best Appearing Car Award waiting to happen, huh? Even the steering wheel! Travis is one talented painter.

X2, Thanks for posting the results, and Kenny for posting pictures of Bucky's new King Kuda II.
Price of fuel keeping us close to home, got to see some of the All-Stars last weekend,
Good Luck with the new car. Paint looks great.
