Stock is out 1st in the morning at 9. We get 2 qualifying runs, then run Class.

We have a great pit spot. We can even see the scoreboards from here. Larry says he hasn't had this good a spot since a points race sometime in the 80's. Thanks to Gary for getting us a good spot.

Lots of stockers here close: Boster, Shaul, Bennett, Fisher, McGee, Line, Feist, Hawk, Bureski.

Others I've seen: Marshall, 3 McCormacks, Wenzel, 2 Welkers, Sepanek.

Well more later. I think we are going to cook some cabbage and kelbasa.

Larry -- I certainly hope all the hoopla leading up to class eliminations tomorrow makes for some great racing -- good luck and I'll wait for your and Pastys' reports ..................

PS-- Stay out of the wine cellar tonight -- you'll need everything you can muster for class ! ! ! !

Well folks, I thought this would never happen. The picture below is Larry with his arms around me and Bill Hawk. Now before everyone thinks the Larry is friends with me and Bill, look at his hands very close. I can assure he has a tight grip on me and Bill, we had no choice. Sorry for the picture quality.

Jack Matyas · 06-25-2009, 07:06 AM

Kenny -- Quality of the picture ? I don't think so -- that photo had to be a ' touched-up ' deal as the three of you have never agree on anything let alone taking a picture together .Its good that you fellas are bonding ...what a Kodak moment ! ! ....maybe you can make plans for an Indy bar-b-q or something .Play nice this morning boys ..................

Per Mom this morning, starting line is HORRIBLE. They made a couple of stocker runs then stopped to make the starting line better. She'll post more latter.

Also, is Miele a levitation artist? All I can see is his head bobbing up and down

After sitting in the scorching sun to watch 90 something stockers go down, I have now got back to the motorhome to the air conditioning and I may not go back out again. The starting line was absolutely horrible this morning. They have new sealant and I think they decided that everyone was getting that on their tires and then spinning. They attempted to run about 30 cars with stopping in between and doing something else to the track and then finally stopped and scraped everything. They let those first 30 or so get another run, but it still was really terrible. There may have been 10 cars that made a decent run. We had a 1.43 60' and ran 10.55 in A/SA. We thought we would be middle of the pack in A/SA but we are way at the bottom. Larry is re-jetting now. The air is absolutely horrible also. I will get the exact figures after I cool off.

Now for the picture--I thought that was a good one of all 3 of them. Contrary to popular belief, we do like Bill and Ken. Larry even had breakfast with Bill this morning. I didn't get over in time. His friend Mr. Eddie Cook is a great cook so I hear. Very nice man, too. I talked with him a bunch last night.

Well more later.
