Jack, we got to do something...wow.


Well folks, it has been a great day of racing, you could not have ask for a better day. For you weather number nuts, the weather stayed the same for pretty much the whole day. Temp 82, Bar 29.80, Humid, 28%, DA 2050ft Wind cross head 8 to 15mph.

I know Jack has been taking notes on class, so he should have a report soon. I got to the the final in AA, Steve Ficacci had the bye first round of class and I ran John Shaul. Steve broke a trans and could not make the next round, it was me and Dave Thomas in the final. I had nothing for Dave, second time this year I lost to Dave.

This is the first of the in car cams. Forgive me, but I am still learning. I'm trying to figure out what works best and were to put the camera. I think by the end of the year I should know what the best spots are. The wavy video is because of the camera moving. I will have to find a better mount

I will be back after dinner with more in car cams and pictures.

....

Ken,

Many thanks for the video. I would like to suggest a "ride" in one of the Morehead SSers. I love the way they leave and recover.

Good luck to every one and give us a great race.

Too bad I was looking forward to the CJ against the V10 - with you racing the winner in the final

I don't think the V10 has anything for the CJ though

:-) peace

Talking Re: Live from Englishtown , NJ - NHRA Supernationals

Yeah- yeah , I know -where have I been ? Right here and I've been busy - Class racing is not dead - not just yet here in the Northeast and today's racing proved it .The class racing today ranked right up there with Indy or the like . Classes like B/SA with eleven entries proved to be a marathon .The early leaders in the class turned out to not be the trophy takers .Jim Boudreau was the class of the field and went thru it like a knife thru butter .....until the final - and a slighly worse light than his opponent was his undoing - Robbie Hudlow ended up with the B/SA hardware and he earned it -and did I menton his perfect light ? AA/SA looked like it was going to another Ficcaci - this time dad Steve ( who was driving Anthony Bongiovanis' new Cobra Jet ) broke a trans and that let the final to our own Ken Miele in his old school Cobra Jet against the ice cream man - Dave Thomas in his Viper powered Challenger and Ken just didn't have enough to stay with him .

And how about the stick singles trophy going to Todd Hoven driving Truman Fields' D/S '68 Firebird over Don Fizells '08 Cobra Jet who spun .And it was no cake walk for him as the round before he had to put out the always tough Adam Strang with a 10.56.And how about poor Eddie Fernandez who had to settle for the singles automatic runner-up when he just didn't have the muscle in the final against Richard Eepprecht in his '94 Caprice v-6 mini LTI .It was almost the little train that could .

Why the DQ's in stock?

Thanks for all the work you, Ken and the rest do to make the reports come alive.
