Good morning - I'm back - maybe a little lighter in the wallet as Debbie and I made a side trip to Atlantic City last night - great food and very pretty ......and I got bukoo bonus points for making the trip .Took a few pics for those of you on the other coast and from the middle of our country .I'l probably be a first round duck - plenty tired this morning - way too much fun ! ! !

We'll start off elims in a little more than an hour -- its getting warm already - should be a super race day ...........later .

You dont know how good that looks Jack sitting here in TX with temps in the 108 deg range for the last month. Thanks for the COOL

Stock just finished first round - a little slower than yesterday .Some surprises - we got to see the first old school car in Stock - Shelby Hurley in her dads extra clean ''55 Chevy P/SA ran but went red - the good news is they received "Best Engneered" for their efforts .

Round one of S/S completed - many redlights - hard to tell some rounds as the win light on the top end not working well . Jack Sepanek had a tough heads-up against Bo Kenneys CJ - he tried hard - tuned 'er up - got a great light - but the awesome power was too much to handle . Maybe next time with Jack Sr. at the controls ........we all miss him .

Here's a few pics from that round .......

Jack,

Any idea what the ET's were on the Sepanek/Kenney match-up?

Mike Carr · 08-06-2011, 02:56 PM

8.92 152 (?) beat a 9.22 142, from what I remember on 1320go.com. Bo just went red in 2nd round, ran 8.88 154.

Jack Sepanek 1198 9.90 .024 9.227 145.67
Bo Kenney 1273 9.90 .026 8.928 155.49.

Jack is still in and going into the fourth rd.

We had two G/SA heads up races in the third round of stock, It looks like the will finish everything up today.
