Good morning boys and girls -- talk about a game changer - this morning the fog is thick as pea soup with not a bit of Sun in sight but hopefully will show up very soon .

Todays action will be mostly Pro's until later in the day so I can wander around and get some still shots of the still many nice cars on the property .

BTW, all of the available Safety Safari equipment is on the track and running - everything from sweepers to the Jet .

Did you know ----

Yesterday's race between the Biondo brothers in Stock was the first time they raced each other in 8 years .And just for the record Sal won .

Sal - who is driving for the Cook Brothers this weekend - has averaged .017 lights thru 5 rounds of racing this weekend .

Roger Cook - who we all know isn't quite right - let me drive his prized / awarded winning / race winning Cobra Jet yesterday .What was he thinking ?

Did you notice there was a shortage yesterday in both Stock and S/S of heads up runs ?

Even with the hurry-up of extra rounds in Stock and S/S it went very smooth .

Did anyone notice Mike Letellier BB/SA - until he lost a close one in rd 5 - was driving like a champ ?

More later ..........
