Dave said it all, not a good day for record setting. I caught three cars at the top of the staging lanes doing what ever it takes to lower the records.

They ran all of SS except the Hemi cars which are in lanes, then it started to spit rain, then some big drops started. By the time Iwalked back to my rig, it stpped raining and the sun came out. They maybe resuming running in a few minutes, I think the Hemi cars are still in the lanes 11:50 am

yup they are running them now

Record is official!! SS/DA record is 9.07 @ 147.05 and SS/CA - 8.897 @ 149.41. First " official" street Hemi To break the 8 second barrier.

The air was not conducive to set records but this Ray Barton Hemi didn't know that!!

A big thanks to David and Ray Barton who understand teamwork and gave me enough horsepower to make it happen. THANK YOU !! We made it happen when it counted!

Nice job John on your SS/CA and SS/DA record. Racing is done for the day, strongs winds and rain have hit the track. It should blow over soon, and the rest of the weekend looks great.

I was trying to get a qualifying sheet from todays action, but the rains came and I did not have enough time. Tomorrows weather will be a lot better so I will make it a point to get a sheet posted. I did see there was 116 stockers on the second sheet, more should be in tomorrow.

I tool a few shots in tear down and it looks like all have past. Me or jack should have the numbers up later.

I did get three in car videos and have lots of pictures. Check back later I should have it all up.

The track was trying to get everyone 3 TT's, it went smoothly until the front came thru shortly after stock ran their 3rd. It is raining with thunder and lightening now and they must be done for today.

There is a qualifying sheet, hopefully someone will post it ,116 stockers and I think there are 78 SS'ers

The AH cars ran again and I saw a couple mid 40's

The #1 qualifier in SS is Vic Santos,I think Jeff Lawrence is 2nd

The #1 qualifier in stock is George Yago, not sure who was 2nd

some of this may have changed as both categories have made another run .

Tomorrow will be completely different conditions, we have class eliminations, it should be fun

Well thats a wrap for sure .As Dave said things were going just fine until the storm hit and that was the end . The NHRA was kind enough to offer a third run but it just didn't happen .At this moment I'm trying to put together a list of record setters and their numbers but until I can verify them I won't put them on this forum .

Shot some pics this afternoon ...........
