Don't like this at all -- 6:30 and its still dark out- we all know what season is coming here in the Northeast and I for one am not looking forward to it .This morning chilly is not the word I would use - its downright cold at 46 degrees here with the high today to reach only mid-sixties .

Many were wondering why things ended early yesterday -- it happened because the NHRA officials and track management decided the track got way too cold to hold high HP cars in the grove and most thought this was a prudent move --the racers who were in the lanes waiting lost only one run at the most .

Many teams arriving this morning and with some leaving last night believe it or not there is room for them - the place is full but I've seen it much worse -- the "cluster" that was expected hasn't happened and so far it looks like we'll be OK ...........later .

Sterlin' -- my numbers yesterday were nothing to brag about ! ! !
