"Live From" JEGS SPORTSnationals
 
5 Attachment(s)
Hey guys... we are the the JEGS SPORTSnationals. I was here last year and it felt like I was at Indy. I'm hoping for the same experience this week. It rained last night, but there is only a slight chance of showers today. We have a test and tune today from 12 to 6.

Tomorrow looks good weather wise, and the rest of the week looks like a typical summer Columbus race, with a chance of a thundershower each day. There are lots of rigs here as parking started on Monday.

Be back later with more photos...

Yes, they are currently running testing for people who bought punch cards from the track In about an hour they will have one time trial for Jack's race then into eliminations.

They will run testing between the rounds of Jack's race.

Photos from the pits. It turned out to be a nice day. A nice breeze and partly sunny, a little warm, mid 80's but still nice. The combo race today is kind of slowing the test and tune down. Its a little confusing on when to go up for testing and when to go up for the combo race.

Jake I can only say this s/comp split at 4 cars and did not run. Me and fletcher jr split finals and did not run in super street
S/g ran but don’t know who. And I didn’t see stock or s/s. They didn’t do a good job of announcing. Sorry

Todd, not sure what NHRA TV will do for this race.

Good morning folks, today is the National part of this two race week called the Jegs Speed Week. Super Street will be out first followed by Stock. Stock and Super Stock get one qualifier than go into class.

There are 542 SST, STK, SS, SG, and SC cars entered for this race... 145 of them are Stock, It feels just like the old days. The pits are packed... and they say this sport is dying, yeah right.

Anyway today looks good, temps will be in the mid 80's with no rain in forecast for today. I hope to have more photos later, Doug Walker is here and should be able to get some nice action shots... stay tuned for more later.

Ken,

If you have time will you do me a favor and ask the Potts Motorsports, SS/GA Camaro team what brand their wheels are? I love the old school look of them.

thank you,

There is audio but it is distorted, you have to find the speaker with the line thru it at the bottom of the screen, which will disappear after a few seconds it you don't click on it. Move your mouse to the bottom and the icon will show

Audio cleared up now........Thanks UNK!

Will not see any results on DRC until much later as this race is Jeg's race and DRC has Summit ties.

A BIG Thank You for the sheets Kenny. Columbus sure put the PERFORMANCE back into stock eliminator. Only 128 qualified spots meaning 14 racers won’t be racing first rd. Good Luck everyone….

They are American Pro Racing ARE racing wheels, made for a limited time.
When available, the asking price is the sacrifice of your first born child to pay for them! :D

Just another heavy squall.
I’m sure we are done for the day.

I just left the track. I'm in kind of retirement now, so I can speak a little more freely I guess. Boy do the racers miss Redman and friends. Watching those rookie rent a help's work the lanes if painful, laughable and disappointing. Good God man, with this kind of entry cost this is nuts. And the starting line is no place for radials. Better keep your bias tires on, or odds on blowing off the race is a probability. I remember when Redman/Brad had control this would have NEVER happened. At least attempt to make it better instead of just sending more cars. There is absolutely no excuse for just ignoring the issues. Yes its hot, but TRY......You positively can not read the scoreboards. They might as well shut them off. I guess they have new ones on the way, just not installed, but you guys want to know what's happening, that's what is happening. What there is of the NHRA staff is working their tails off, but its a challenge.......
