Here is another in car from my first rd of the Factory Stock Showdown racing Don Fezell.

Rob, thanks so much for videoing the Factory Stock Showdown, along with all the other classes, great job as always.

I know its a little early (6:20am) to be posting and man is it cold, but since I'm up I might as well be productive. My weather station is showing the temp at 31 along with a rising bar 29.95 and water grains are lower then I have ever seen. How about this for a DA -1770 ft. I don't see us starting first rd at 9 like the schedule says with it being so cold. It will be a nice day but cool, 60 at best and it will take to the late morning to get any temp in the track in my opinion. Also it will be quicker then yesterday, Super Stock class should be fun to watch along with the Hemi Challenge.

Ken, should be worth the wait.
It's great to see good weather FINALLY! At the Dutch.
Is there more qualifying today or does racing start?
Would have been nice to see what some of these cars are capable of if they decided to go the full 1320.

Does anyone know schedule this morning? Is SS class supposed to go out after Super Street? I know Super Gas needs one more time run from yesterday.

Frank Castros · 10-13-2012, 07:44 AM

Thanks to Kenny and Jack for their great coverage.
A picture of Joe Garbarine's Challenger would be appreciated.

SSDA Hemi · 10-13-2012, 07:55 AM

Should be fast out there today. DA is -1479 right now! 33 degrees and 29.9 barometer...

Good morning - I'm sure a beating is coming -- from the boss who never ever is up at 6 am with postings - all day long its what I'll hear from him .He must not be feeling himself - or maybe he's just tired - you know that autograph signing stuff really wears one out. Or maybe he's just fighting off all the track babes - with him being a full time hired shoe and all it doesn't leave him much time ......best thing that happened to him this year is when he blew up his Cobra Jet - look at the opportunities that are coming his way because of that one incident .All kidding aside he did a super job driving the "Cook n Hawk" car to a runner-up finish last night -- well done Kenny .

This morning is another of those Chamber of Commerce deals - its Sunny with blue skies and very , very pretty out my window - this area of the country is spectacular this time of the year - if you've never been here plan on it .As you'll see from my pic there is a coating on the grass - yep , my friends that is frost - first of the season in these parts - winter is just around the corner .

There is plenty of racing left this weekend -- stay tuned ........

9:00 and it's a blistering 37> degrees and sunny!
Baro has gone way up overnite to 29.92"
current adjusted altitude @-525' and density altitude of -1128' !!!
Just need some heat in the track to go with those numbers .

Lots more pictures to post when I can get some bandwidth to upload them.
