The rains did show up again at E-Town this afternoon but only for a half an hour or so but were accompanied by some strong winds .Almost as quickly as the storm blew in it was gone - dark clouds and all .The Sun came back out and helped with the drying process .

First of all congrats to 'Lil Joe Santangelo the Stock champion who was a driving machine all weekend .Would you believe thru seven rounds of racing he averaged .017 .And the clutch race had to be in the quarters with Joe Lisa heads-up with both having almost the same ET's but Joeys' light a terrific .009 .Congrats Joey ...

Congrats also go out to Eric Cabral who made it to the Stock final in his very first try only to go -.014 red .

The SuperStock final was contested between Brian Martel who went .018 followed by James Antonnette who went -.004 red .Congrats to both ...........

I'm still downloading some afternoon photos and after a dinner I'll post 'em .

This was some race - it had it all-- heat - cool - fast -- slow - good barometer -- in the toilet barometer -- one thing great for the Sportsman all weekend was the traction - thanks NHRA ! ! !

My advise - get some grade points and sign up for this one next year .
