Pat, I guess you know we have Scott first round, so I will be sure and say Hi! They are just next door.

Well it is another beautiful day here in Elvis-town. Bright blue skies again. It was 58 degrees earlier, but it should have warmed up a little by now. We run at 9, so more later.

I am listening to the Audiocast and am wondering how come the ladder changed?

Re: "Live from Memphis"
 

Well, way too much excitement this morning. When they called us to the lanes, they said,"Oh you might want to check the ladder as it has changed this morning". So I went down to the trailer where they had it posted and it was still like it was yesterday. So I get back to the trailer and Larry said to go to staging because they had thrown McClanahan out. So I go to staging and sure enough, we had a heads up with Bobby Brannon. So Larry does what he can to get it quicker, then red-lights and oh, Bobby broke a rocker arm when he left.

So now I am ready to load up and go home and mow the yard.

I heard they tossed McClanahan for having the wrong hood on the car.

More later if I hear anything happening.

It's 1:50PM east coast.Is the audio broadcast on now?I'm getting nothing.

Re: "Live from Memphis"
 

Well we are on our way home now. We watched the 2nd round, then packed up and headed home. Larry is trying to decide if he wants to go on to Louisville this evening to Ohio Valley and the National Open. I told him to just drop me off at home. I think I can be more productive mowing the yard.

Well good luck to our good friend and neighbor Jerry Bennett. He's hot--.006 light in the first round and .008 light in the second. He also won the points race there at Memphis last spring.

Larry / Patsy,

Was there any teardowns in Stock or S/S @ Memphis ? How did the car get teched
with the wrong hood in the first place ?..........

Re: "Live from Memphis"
 

It not the wrong for the car, the car is a natural "C" car with the flat hood hood. This means it cannot run "A"

Re: "Live from Memphis"
 

Kyle Fickler ran Topeka points meet and Indy with flat hood on his clone 08 Mustang cobra jet, They told him at the next race he had to change the hood. They made him take the Shelby sticker`s off in tech, Tom

Re: "Live from Memphis"
 

Dave, there was not any teardown of stock or superstock at memphis.

Evidently someone noticed the flat hood and that it would not fit in A/SA and alerted a tech official. On the thread on here from Floyd Russo, Jr. "Is it a west coast thing?", someone had taken a picture of the hood that he has posted on that thread. That was put on there on Friday. I just wished they had posted the new ladder on Friday also. Oh well.
