Wink Re: "Live From" Summernationals - Englishtown, NJ

Good morning members and friends - let the Summernationals commence !! Actually they have partially because the Summer part has started - its humid and sticky even at this hour - only thing you could hear is the humming of generators - what will it be like at noon ?

This morning because of my near lakeside location I thought there was a "Duck Dynasty" film crew here but no -- it was just the ducks quacking nearby .Damn ! ! ! They have to be a little more quiet in the AM or they could end up under glass being dinner .....

This morning its already 76 degrees with 65% humidty and the barometer is just over 30 -- makes the final DA at 1800 .

Ran into Bob Lang and Dave Glick this morning who were working on the track into the wee hours last night and tell me its in terrific shape for today - thanks for your efforts boys .
Took a few shots just for fun ........later

Cool Re: "Live From" Summernationals - Englishtown, NJ

Jack:
The Summernats are back for sure, but the original D1 dime (quarter??) rocket appears to be sitting it out. I drove past Ray Golonka's house on my way to work today (as I do everyday) and I noticed the race car and trailer still in the yard. Call it what you will, but it ain't the Summernats without the big green Cadoo doing a burnout, putting a Cobra Jet or two in check!!
A fan favorite for sure, hopefully Ray will come down and sign autographs for the fans.

Let the time shotz begin!!
Be safe one and all!
Keep those coolers way stocked!!

Prez

Talk about a hectic morning. We have two qualifying shots in stock already done. I have not had time to get any photos, but I did manage to get two in car cams. When it get a little less hectic I will try to get some more photos and videos.

We are getting ready for class, the weather is HOT ! .... 90 plus right now. the DA was 2800ft when we ran stock.

I will be back later....

Talking Re: "Live From" Summernationals - Englishtown, NJ

Hey Jack, get this. I have a friend who knows I am a racer, he said he saw a beautiful new body Camaro on Facebook. He asked me if I knew a guy named "Jack Flash"! I said sure, everybody knows Jack Flash! Jim
