"Live" from Atlanta National

What kind of reporting is it when you don't mention your .002 package in round 2? Great job and probably the run of the weekend! Thanks for the reports.

You missed Mike Saye's 0.001 package against Rampy in Super Stock Round 1? That's not too tacky either. Rampy missed a perfect run by 0.008 seconds and lost at both ends of the track (he broke out by 2).

That was a wild first round. Lots of upsets. Two great runs by championship caliber drivers.

And Fletcher went one-and-out in both Stock and Super Stock. Don't see that very often, and one of the losses was to Slate Cummings, who seems to be making a habit of beating up on Fletcher lately.

Final session of pros is almost complete. Sportsmen coming out next. We are scheduled to run to completion or as long as the track permits. There is no rain in the forecast, but track temperature could be an issue.

Well, the rain arrived early this morning and it looks like it will be here all day.

The weather radar is very ugly - nothing severe, just lots of it.

Sportsmen are done for the day. The rain has gone and track drying is underway. The plan is to get a round or two of pros in tonight. Tomorrow will start off at 9 am with sportsmen.

Just when you think only the sportsmen get the sh!+ end of the stick look at the DRC "Done for the day" post.

They tried running TopFuel, nobody could get down the track so they gave it up half way but results of those side by side smokefests stand.
