Hey guys, I'm back... Things are moving fast today. Stock is finishing up with their 3 qualifier. I was told there are about 240 cars here. The place looks jammed, but I guess its just a small track so it looks packed. Anyway here are Stock Q2 and Super Stock q2... I don't it will change much for Q3.

I will have photos up a bit later for Stock and Super Stock.

Whoever is running the race from NHRA at Orlando is spot on, no downtime between classes, maybe the ST Louis crew from last week should watch the live feed and take notes. When you have 8 classes and you lose 10 minutes per class you lose 80 minutes per session. And this has nothing to do with the car count, this is about DOWNTIME.

GOOD JOB D2

Stock photos... be back in a bit with Super Stock.

Ken Miele · 10-14-2022, 04:51 PM

Ken Miele · 10-14-2022, 05:04 PM

Ken Miele · 10-14-2022, 05:05 PM

Really appreciate your reporting Ken. Hope Ozzy will work with D2 to get his traditional date next year. With the Gators being the first National next year they could really pack the place (including the field before you make the turn) if it preceded the Baby Gators. Expected more D1 cars though, suppose they’re saving up for the Dutch next weekend.

Unless someone was really in desperate need of the points I can't blame those guys for not coming down to Orlando I mean it's not like fuel is two bucks a gallon. This has to be some of the dumbest scheduling they've done it a while. Even for me it would cost around 800 bucks in fuel to go down there so I can just imagine what it's going to cost Shane Oakes. He's currently in 2cd place a few points behind the leader so it was worth the trip to try and take first back but for anyone else I can't imagine making the trip down there from D1. Be interesting to see when the schedule comes out if they go back to the old schedule.

Good morning all, eliminations start at 9am with Junior Dragsters followed by Super Street and than Stock. Same rotation as yesterday.

Weather is the same as yesterday, there was one record set.

Robbie Butler GT/QA 98 Firebird 11.007 not sure of the mph.
