79 stockers went down 1st pass. We went 1.02 under. Need to work on leaving a little better. Fred Suiter did a nice wheelstand, then almost hit the wall. D/SA cars going fast. VanLant went 10.60, then Burton went 10.53. DRC should have results up soon.

More later.
Patsy

Hey Larry,

Ask Bob Shaw if he changed spark plugs again. Last year when he went more than 1.4 under he blamed it on a new set of plugs.

Thanks for the updates, I can't make Earlville this year. Have some Bar-B-Q for me.

Marty

Just went down for the nice Bar B Q and potato salad dinner put on by Tri-State Raceway. Thanks. It was very good as usual. Saw Bob Shaw there. Larry told him to go ahead and eat a lot since by Monday he will have to weigh more. Congrats for #1 qualifier. I wasn't aware he was setting a record. Congrats for that, too.

Been down by the Koppeins and friends where Larry ate again. He is still trying to make up for being light last weekend! They put on a big dinner also. Sorry I don't know their names. I will find out and thank them properly later.

There was a clean-up run late that barely beat the rain. It is sprinkling pretty heavy. Don't know just what the schedule is for tomorrow. The weather is looking iffy Saturday and Sunday.

As I said before, if you have never been here, you got to come at least one time. Really nice track and friendly people. I even got a cookie after the 2nd run today. Larry didn't eat all of them before he got back to the trailer this time.

Our car finally left good for the 1st time. Wheels up a little and a nice wheelstand.

Well more tomorrow. If the weather is good, they may try to run a few rounds tomorrow.

Patsy

Well cars are going down the racetrack. And stock doesn't run til after Super Comp. Of course we didn't know that until this morning or we could of slept a little longer. Next time I will go and check out the schedule.
It is really overcast now. Everyone is getting 1 shot and then going into eliminations. The weather is supposed to turn bad tonight, so they are going to try and get in as much as possible since this is the last race of the season for Div. 5.

Super stock seems to be going 5-8 quicker this morning.

More later.
Patsy
