Good morning everyone, well it is going to be crazy morning, the temp right now is 42. They should be calling stock anytime now. Here are the numbers for this morning.

Trying to slow the cars down will be a challenge

temp 42
humid 60
bar 30.00
da -760ft

I see Radley has fresh Hoosiers on for his heads up 1st rd --- Wonder if they are the $800 a set just released radials?

Ken I understand where you are coming from. And I'm not trying to steal this great thread.
But that should be a prime target of these boards to get nhra to factor in the density altitude into the afhs
Working on a car to slow it down is just completly wrong.

Thanks very much for the updates!

The in-car videos are GREAT! I think, with the low price of the cameras, this will be the start of something big. I'm getting one, even though I don't have a car that runs (yet). LOL!

The in car rides are great! Can't get enough of them, the Rich South 9.50 run is really good. Thanks. Sounds like the cars are gonna fly today!

I have been trying to post for the last 2 hours, internet connection for me has been erratic.

I will try again later, if a get a better connection. Sorry everyone.

Stock this morning was about 9 quicker then yesterday. Unfortunately I only picked up 5. I dialed wrong and lost first round, not sure I would have won anyway. Greg Rowe was going dead on and his a very good driver.

Super Stock did not pick up as much, 3 to 4 seemed the norm.

I have a helmet cam from Dan Fletcher's run against James Perrone in stock. It was the best race of the day, margin was 1 thou. When I get a better connection I will try to get it uploaded.

I am most likely leaving in the morning so my 'Live From" will end today. I have been on the road for two weeks and looking forward to the ride home. I appreciate all the support I get on Class Racer and for all the members that contribute to this site and the sport, thank you.

Don't worry Art, I understand.
