Re: Live from New England Dragway - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
Good morning gang -This is the day we've been waiting for -sunshine , blue skies and low temps .This morning should produce some good et's as the weather numbers look fantastic - starting with the barometer at 30.01 and the temp @66 degrees - 55% humidity but will burn off as the Sun comes up .The final DA is just over 1000' and climbing .... its a solid 7 or 8 hundreths faster than yesterday .
So you think you've got a fine tow rig ? Check out this Renegade Toter and stacker from Stone Motors - there's so much black to polish it must have taken a week - the bar keep getting raised as a few years ago this rig could have made any Alcohol team happy .And if you're feeling like you got a few extra bucks in your checkbook its for sale - and if you have to ask how much - well you know the rest . Back a little later after the first sessions ........

SuperStockers turned out at NED also- only one made a record attempt - the truck of chassis builder Mark Markow - his try was a little soft on the leave and came up short .
After being in storage for just over twenty years the LaBelle & Stickles Camaro returned - Circus paint and all . George LaBelle piloted his ride once again .

A little history - The black Nova Super Stocker pictured above once belonged to Joe Santangelo Sr. and was campaigned as an SS/I back in the day at Connecticut Dragway. It is now owned by Ed Chin and Ray Knight is driving it this weekend.

Jack: Any truth to the rumor that Infantino was checked for a " Fake" engine?
