"Live From" Z Max Four Wide

[Ken Miele]

It’s a beautiful day here at the Four Wide. Its a little chilly but the sun is strong. I just finished up with tech and I took a few random shots while waiting. Tech was a little slow but it went smooth.

The local weather tells us there is no rain in the forecast. Tomorrow should be very fast, temps for our early morning qualifying will be in the 50's, with a high of 70. Saturday and Sunday look great, getting warmer every day.

Being a 3 days race I am not sure how or what type in car videos I will have, but I will do my best. I'm going to tinker with the race car and take some more pictures, I will be back Later. Butch, Bill Howell is doing the decals and will be here this weekend, stop by and pickup some.

Ken - Great to see you're on the job for a change - make sure you take lots of pictures and dig up all the dirt ...........we'll be out here waiting .

PS - You can relax next week as I'll be in Richmond .

PSS - It'd be real good if you could win the race too while you're there ..............

Thanks Ken. I will run Bill down and get some from him. I have pretty good shot from ZMAX i want you to have, so where are you parked. I'm driving in about 7:30 am so won't have long in the pits early before y'all start your qualifying runs. Agree with Jack, sure would like to see you win one.

Here is tomorrow's schedule, Super Stock Class will be run on Saturday. I have never seen Class on Saturday except for Indy, this has to be a first.

Butch, I am on the pro side. All classes except comp and top sportsman are parked on the pro side. I am passed the finish line next to the fence. look for the PC Richard trailer I am parked in front of them.

Don't' count on a win from me Jack, just trying to enjoy the race.

That Monza i wonder if that was the late Jerry Nethers S/G Car??

[BKSG1198]

If I'm correct it's the old Jimmy Fordyce's Monza he used to run in S/G. The current driver runs it in Super Comp

I got to ride around the pits and get some shots of the cars before they were put away. I saw Nitro Joe's new golf cart, he told me to make sure I get a photo and post it, it very nice and very bright.

It is starting to cool off fast, it will be a very fast first session for tomorrow given this tracks history.

This is my first race of the year, it was nice to see everyone and bs about the new year and what we did over the winter, I guess that what keeps me coming back. I saw a few new cars that I have not seen before, but mostly the regulars were here. I finally got to see the Hawk and Cook Brothers CJ, man that thing is a show car. Makes my car look old and worn out.

I will give the weather numbers in the morning before I go up, see you all tomorrow.

Rob, you are correct that is (was) my brothers monza.
