Re: Live from the Auto Meter Northern Class Nationals II
Schedule update: Run order change to STK, N/SS, SS to alleviate congestion at scales/fuel check.
The Main Events will be run to completion today to allow people to get an early start on travel tomorrow. Thank you so much for all those racers and sponsors who put their heart and soul into this event. If there is enough interest, we can run the Combo race after 2nd or 3rd of the main event, and run it concurrent with the Main Event.

Re: Live from the Auto Meter Northern Class Nationals II
Jack McCarthy is always whining about being at such a disadvantage in U/SA against "the Cadillac" and others, but it looks like his -1.443 qualifying shot was better than what "the Cadillac" did at Brainerd at -1.414. What's the deal, Jack? Sounds like a Brer Rabbit whine to me. . .
Just sayin'.

Re: Live from the Auto Meter Northern Class Nationals II
It's so cool that old Stockers never die. You D1 veterans will remember Richie DiCola Chevelle that was passed on to "Pittsburgh Jim" Henderson after being raced by Dave McConnell
. This is Jims son Scott who is now driving the car. Those that I spoke with like idea of getting the racing done today. Hats off to Michael and his Loose Rocker Team for thinking of your customer. Another one of my Milan Dragway Class Racer colleagues Bill Foder - aka The Crow (note the arms) and also the Professor.

Re: Live from the Auto Meter Northern Class Nationals II
Who doesn't love 66-67 Novas? There a a number of Stockers here starting with Craig Sauerbaugh's Crate Motor Stick car from western Michigan
Along with his U.S. Nationals Winning Camaro. Dave Walther "plays" with this F/S Nova that is a joy to watch go down the track. Bill Sempsrott has his 283 Stick Nova here. And the lone auto Nova belongs to Dick Kincade
