Hey Pasty,it`s ironic you mentioned Denver and scoreboards. The one`s at KCIR used to be at Bandimere,and made their way out there around `94. Have fun this weekend,that`s one of my favorite tracks! Lane

Well they finally started down the track around 10:45. They ran, sst, sc, then stock/superstock combo. 43 cars made the 1st pass. Larry almost took out the tree. I haven't talked to him yet. He went up to the starting line after he made the run. Hopefully nothing is broken, but he had to get out of it, so we don't have a time. Doesn't look like there is going to be but 5 or 6 in top stock. They were not announcing who anyone was much, so I have a lot of red cars, green cars and black cars with a time . Supposed to get 4 runs today.

More later.

We had 45 cars on our 2nd run. They have not posted any qualifying. After lunch I will try to figure it out and let you know. We got a good run that time. 10.31 and 127 mph.
More later.

The website says qualifying was changed to 10AM instead of 9. Is this not accurate?

Well it is a bright, beautiful day here at KCIR. And COLD. I will go out and check the weather in a bit and report, but I sure am glad the heat works on our motorhome. This is the 1st opportunity to use it and it works fine!

They have not announced anything yet on the PA and Larry is up teching in. I will let you know when he gets back what time everything starts.

More later.

Thanks to everyone that put this together. Thanks especially to Troy and Matt. This was a blast to do something new and all around one of the funnest times drag racing. Hopefully with more support we can keep this thing going next year. A big thank you has to go to my dad who builds one fast piece that I'm very lucky to push the pedal to the floor and show what he can do.
