"Live" from Norwalk points race! - Page 2

Well, I finally got a little bit of a signal. Today has been really nice here. The air was about 1600' on the 1st run. It has been sunny to overcast all day. On the 1st run, Jason McCormack pulled a big wheelie then was all over the track. He had it tied way down on the 2nd run. We ran ok, the Dana is holding up well. They got a clean-up run late. Everything seems to have run pretty well with not much down time all day. Heard that Duell in the Challenger just got a grade point and then left to go to a Mopar show.

We are parked next to a Top Dragster who started his up in the pits this morning and blew oil all over our trailer and even onto the car on the other side of the trailer. I was trying to run into the motorhome to close up the bedroom windows to keep the smoke out and tripped and fell. So I guess I will be sore tomorrow!

There were not any stockers trying to set records this weekend. Heard there was a superstocker, but I don't know who it was.

I made friends with Paul and Debbie Boster's dog Missy this weekend. She is a Doberman and scared me half to death the last time I saw her last year, but she was a good dog today.

The weather is not looking good for here tomorrow. Looks like we may get rain. We are supposed to run at 9, so we will just have to wait and see.

Well more later. Oh and I apologize for calling Tim Gillespie's girlfriend Debbie. Her name is Julie.

Hope it is a good weekend for all the racers. I just looked at the qualifying sheets for Stk and SS. Wish I was there, even as a spectator. The list shows 75 Stk and 80 SS cars. Nice showing. Compare that to the turn out in Bristol, 39 Stk and 47 SSers. I know where I would like to be,

It is Sat. morning and still not raining. The wind blew a bunch last night, but it was great sleeping with the windows open with the wind blowing in. Right now it is overcast and looks like we are right on the edge of getting rain. We start running at 9, so it looks like we should at least get our qualifying runs this morning.

More later.
