Congratulation to the winners! :confused: Yes, there are winners already. In a repeat of Gainesville, Sunday will be an all-Pro show, due to expected rain in the early to mid-day hours. However, instead of holding the Sportsman classes over to late Sunday night or even Monday, everything from Comp down was run out to completion on Saturday night.

How was this decision viewed by those involved??

I lost Saturday morning so the decision to finish the sportsman racing had no affect on us. I only spoke with a few but everyone agreed with get er done and get out before weather takes over.

Saturday morning wait time at the ice cream stand 30-45 min, and it’s always worth the weight.

First round winners had to scale and had what I call “The Dope Search”: open the doors get out and Tech checks many different things quickly. In the car, in the trunk, and wherever. It helps keep us honest.

Congrats to Joe for winning Stock two years in a row, now he has two Scoops

I have always wanted the sportsman to be finished on Saturday all NHRA needs to do is get a "major sponsor" for the "Saturday Sportsman Show" and make a bigger deal for us with an added purse money of course. Plus those who have to be back to work can have a leisure trip back home on Sunday

That would be nice and eaiser on people to get home at a decent time.

Not involved (was supposed to be) but kudos to NHRA for getting it right in my opinion.
And congrats to the winners!

With me weight and car balance is always an issue. One year for Indy to get the truck to min. weight I had to get down to 250 lbs. No one had seen me that light in 20 years. People were asking Patsy if I was ok since I lost so much weight.

Larry Hills' Dumbo Q'd # 2, -1.268, 9.332 in FS/D at the 2020 Cajun Classic at Belle Rose Louisiana.

The Elephant will fly again!

Dare I say a top 16 or better at the Big Go.

Larry always has a plan.

At 2 seconds under eventually, you probably didn`t need to go on a diet.

How many are left on Sunday? If you have no desire to run in front of the fans, maybe you don't need to run Nationals?
