You are right Jack for sure......but for less than the cost of towing fuel, tolls and entry fee I can race two different tracks on two different days and plan to do exactly that ...Island saturday and E-town Sunday........and driving for 3 hours just to get some crabs and a few beers and park on the side of a rocky cliff is not my idea of fun......Cecil is a cool track with a lot of history but maybe they could spring for some decent bathrooms with running water! It's 2010 and last time I was there all I saw was PortaPotties......good thing my camper is fully equipped!!!

Hey I would love to be there........I prefer NHRA racing anyday and being there would be fun....but I chose to do some other things these days.....

Friday 6:45 AM -- Talk about a pretty morning - this is it ! The Sun is just coming up and we are close enough to the Atlantic Ocean to get a whiff of the salt breeze .Last evening it was humid bigtime as there were many generators running all night keeping the air conditioners electrified but today its much milder for sure.It is already 72 degrees and is supposed to hit ninty today -- barometer is 29.52 but we're past 2000 feet DA even at this early hour .

In the first of the photos below is "Camp Glick" - where even the NHRA officials are camping with us now .I just knew this camping out thing would catch on .........

While out taking photos this morning I ran into some campers - one asked if I saw how pretty the Moon was last night -- my answer - "My gazing at the Moon days are over thank you " -- let me tell you that's the cleaned-up version .Must have been some serious partying last night - some of those folks looked pretty rough this morning . My big night ? I have zero TV reception - nada -zip- zero ........not even PBS so I just turned in early .Later............

Stock got out a little after 10am but it was already 85 degrees /47% and a DA of almost 3000 feet -- most went well in spite of the weather -- I'll post something after the sheets are out .Most drivers I spoke with are satisfied with the track and its new surface after the grinding .Later .........

Boy I sure wish I lived closer to some your division races. That's quite a field. Did you go to Indy last year? I was looking through my pictures and wasn't sure what I was looking for if you went. Could you post a picture of your car. Would like to meet you if you get to Atlanta or Charlotte. Really appreciate your live post from the races. Keep up the good work in your spare time. LOL
