They are just finishing up with the clean ups. It looks dark out here and we might get some thunderstorms, Jack must be near. I was told that drc will be here tomorrow, so we should see some timely reports. There will be qualifying up later tonight. The qualifying you see now has some errors and I assume that will change today or tomorrow. Mike is correct there will be no live timing, the storms that came through here the other day wrecked havoc and all the computer systems.

Gary Richard has another combo out, driven by Anthony Fetch. Its 2010 CJ with a 352. I was talking to Anthony and he loves it. Its the silver CJ in the picture, its one of the original CJ's not a biw.

We are supposed to get one hit in the morning and then go into eliminations. I was told they will try to run as many rounds as they can tomorrow.

Thanks Jim, we do appreciate all you do.

Talking Re: "Live From" Atco NHRA Lucas Oil Series 2012

Hi gang - I finally drug my tired bones to the track tonight and believe me when I came thru the gates I couldn't believe my eyes .The place is packed - in the last few years I can't remember it being this full - tommorrow morning I'll take some high up shots of the pits and you'll see what i'm talking about .

In my absence Ken was kind enough to fill in - not sure where he found the time ....well you know how it is when you're on the Provisional Pole and what with the autograph sessions and appearances and all . Thanks Ken ......and you better not dock me for today because as you can see I'm working overtime tonight .And oh BTW you're looking pretty sporty in that new ride - better thank Anthony a bunch ! ! !

I'm doing this in spurts as the Internet tonight is terrible - it keeps booting me off .

The ride here was plenty eventful - rain - thunderstorms - wind - heat - humidity .....you name it and it happened on the way here .It got so bad at one point I spent some time in a rest area - it was quiet and peaceful listening to the rain on the coach roof .Ah - thats livin' .............

I can't finish up tonight without talking about fuel a little as I stopped on Route 73 just outside of Berlin at the Valero station to see my friend Punjab and get some of his inexpensive diesel -I cant believe its .35 to .45 cents a gallon cheaper here in New Jersey and Punjab even puts it in .

See you folks in the AM -- I'm told there is a possibility that many rounds will be run tomorrow as bad weather is expected Sunday ........whatever happens ClassRacer.COM will keep you up to date ......................later .

Well its about freakin time Jack, no xmas bonus for you.

Hey Rock, its a fun ride. I am so used to my old junk, it makes my car look like a model T. Everything new and hi-tech. I would love to have one, but I could never give up my car. I would love it if NHRA would let us use some of this new technology in the old cars.

I will tell Anthony you said hello, hope to see you at Indy.

Error: There is a 09 ' Challenger in H/SA. I got that combo bumped out of H and G. Maybe a H/S. Anybody know?

Jeff, I will check it out for you tomorrow. There are a bunch of drivers that are listed in the wrong classes and cars.

Good morning boys and girls - Whatever time we were to go out this morning is off the table as during the night bigtime fog rolled in and talk about pea soup this is it -visibility is about 50 yards at best and it feels like you're soaking wet but not raining .Numbers ? here they are - 77 degrees w/ 74% humidity and 106 grains of water but w/ 30.02 barometer and totals up to 2100' already .

The Internet here this morning is again the worst so I jumped on Atcos' wi-fi and pirated some of Joe Sways' signal .........thanks Joe ! !

Back a little later ...........
