Definitely wish I was there this weekend, have fun everybody.

Hammer, I will try to keep you up to date this weekend.

Andrew, I bet you having more fun up there at Notre Dame ! Study hard and make us all proud!

Well it is 65 degrees here this morning, heading to 88 later in the day. Sunny and pleasant! Rigs were pulling in all night readying for a 9:00 start this morning.

More after I get out and about.

Do they have a Formula SAE at Nortre Dame? That would be fun.

We had 96 cars go down first pass. Robbie Shaw gets the wheelie award for that run and probably the weekend. He rode way, way out. We are in B/SA this weekend and went a 10.50. The air is good, but not great. Lots of out of division cars here. Didn't see any blistering fast runs. Lots are not running all out. More later.

Oh, Gene Monahan said to tell his wife, Kathy that "He loves her and misses her". I think that was really nice!

!

Folks must be pretty confident their combo can go .9-1.0 under at Indy, which it will probably take....any DRC sightings??

Larry Hill · 08-27-2010, 11:18 AM

The DA was 1725' that run. #1-Greg Hill 1.03 under, #2-Irvin Johns-1.02 under (@110 mph).

I seriously doubt if it takes that to make the cut at Indy, that would be 1.20 to 1.30 under the old indexes ...

Dean Roberts · 08-27-2010, 02:15 PM

I think the more interesting question is how many cars will run past 1.00 under for a potential hit?

Larry Hill · 08-27-2010, 02:48 PM

We just made our 2nd run and stayed the same. The DA was 2325'. 106 cars made that run and I know a couple are waiting for the clean-up this afternoon. Wade Owens had trouble spinning that round. Amy Faulk had trouble getting down the track. Ronnie West made a good run at 10.12. I am going to try to get some pics in a while that I will post later.

More later.

I wish, but they don't.

Also I don't know about school being more fun than racing. I wish Bowling Green was closer so I could do both.
