Sunday - Sunday - Sunday ---------- In a few minutes we'll kick off day 2 of this Lucas event and what a beauty .Weather gauges show it's 4 to 5 hun faster this morning and the stockers are parading and can't wait .
Yesterday -- well surely a lot of racers including myself found it challenging to find traction of any kind as it was a tuning and adjusting nightmare as some of the best tuners were scratching for some traction - guys like Barton, Morgan , Darroch, Goldman and many others had no answer as what to do to get some hook . Hopefully today will be better .Could it be that the traction compound shortage ???? Or maybe the lack of gold dust?? Conditions like yesterday are usually when the track temps are in the 135 degree area and I'd can't say it was that high . They just called Stock to the lanes .........later.

Move your extra weight to the rear you don’t have a 50-50 rule!

I wonder why he’s looking to the left when his opponent is to the right 🧐

and also he's doing one of two things- (#1 checking out his buddies on the hill at the finish line... or... #2 trying to read the scoreboards as he goes by)

Hey guys, a few more shots to end this weeks racing. I was just thinking how cool Stockers are. Even though I don't have my Shelby anymore... I can't get over what a great car show Stockers make. There where so many cool cars here, I wish I had time to do stories and photos of them all. Here are three iconic cars, it just does no get any better.
See you all at Columbus ! |

Ken
Wow... that last batch of photos was Stanley Kubrick quality! The finish line pics were a great perspective. An old timer told me in the 1958-1968 era, people only cared about the finish line. That was before all the great action happened before 330 feet. This Ken quote... "I can't get over what a great car show Stockers make" Yes those cars all look great, fantastic really. I wish I felt the same about the new versions of the Camaro Mustang etc.. I do like the new Challenger, and feel it evokes the original more. Great job keeping the interest in the sport, and the live from series of reporting, it makes the world a better place. |
