Talk about a long hot day - this was it for sure but plenty of good action in both Stock and SuperStock.Wish I could have spent more time watching and photo taking late in the day but I had to get my stuff back in shape for tomorrows last qualifier and we all know how challenging that has been .

One lone record was set - the COPO Camaro of DeCesaris & Durham set the FS/A record at 8.919 pending tech .I've got a camera full of pics from this team and will do a spotlight on them tomorrow .BTW, Byron Durham is the son of pioneer drag racer Malcom Durham and is surely a chip off his dads block .

Stick?

Re: Live from Atco,NJ - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
 

Yes, it is a stick.

Brett, I'm thinking its an auto when I heard it go down the track. But I know Eric had a stick in the car at one time. I will find out tomorrow.

Here are some random shots of the day. The video is Adam Keir in his AA/SA '70 Nova, Adam ran a 9.84 on this run, the DA was about 2800ft.

Good morning all - This is the day we've been waiting for -sunshine, blue skies and even though its already a bit warm (76 at this hour) and the humidity is 62% ( which will burn off some) but with the barometer at 29.70 it puts the DA at just over 2100' .

Today we'll all get a final hit then later on its first round for most of us this afternoon and evening .
