SuperStock got round one in -Track was great -they prepped it hard - NHRA finally saw fit to do it right .........they still haven't called Stock and its 9:05 pm with lightning around us ..............

OK - Stock has been over for more than an hour but i've been celebrating with some friends and ignoring you guys - sorry ......

Anyway the track was great as expected you but i can't give you much in the way of results as I was one of the last pairs down the track .Most picked up 3 to 5 .......

Bright and early tomorrow morning we'll start with SuperStreet at 8:30 ......

As you'll see there were even a few fans in the stands for the first round of S/S .

Back to the hotel and it's midnight. No dining this evening. A very long day for sure. Time run at 4:30PM and then 1st round for me at 10:15PMish............


Was looking forward to the Pizza Cottage but that didn't happen.

There were no Dave Ley sightings at the HeyMan Ice cream stand.......what's up with that?

Good morning ! ! ! Now that everyone has had some rest its on to round two on this drop dead nice Sunday morning .That Sun yesterday just plain cooked us and it really wears you out - I've never downed so many bottles of water in one 24 hour period as I have the last one .What in the world was I thinking when I decided to come here this weekend ?

Last night even though they said we were going to hit storms they missed us but it did give a terrific light show and we were spared once again - I can't believe it but they're calling for more storms again later this morning and then a huge weather change--- temps much lower this afternoon -- once again we'll see .Back soon ..............

Re: Live from Columbus-NHRA Lucas Oil Series
 

LOL....So Glad I'm not there

Re: Live from Columbus-NHRA Lucas Oil Series
 

Thanks for the updates Jack...your insight is greatly appreciated..hard to sit at home looking at my car and not be there....but I will say... my pool felt pretty good yesterday.

9:15 update - Rain just hit - they sent everyone back to the pits -- coming down in buckets / cats & dogs ........well you get it .Did I mention that this "new" coach is a great place to be "holed-up" in the bad weather and the basement AC has worked flawlessly the entire trip - kept it like a meat locker every day .......thanks again Marc ! ! !

We're probably going to lose a few hours to this storm ...................Many who lost last evening and were going to stick around today are now hightailing it out of here before it gets bad ........

Jim, Kenny built that car himself from a street car without a lot of money.
