Mike Fuller in his B/SA Camaro had the longest distance - not sure who was the winner of the style award.

80+ Stockers are here. Chris Holbrook was #1 after Q1 @ -1.14.

S/S had been called to the lanes but the Super Category semis were to be run first.

Thank you Mike for all the updates. Was the longest wheelstand past the 60' clocks? I heard he had to make a steering correction fast when it came down.... Any photos?

According to the qualifying data, which should match the tech card, it's a '62 Pontiac Grand Prix with a 389. Since I know zip about what class that puts him in, you now know everything I know.

Ron, It's a 389 ,Tri power 318 factory hp rating.
It went 11.77 a couple weeks ago at Indy.

A couple of photos before heading back to the track. Btw, the signal at the track is weak so posts are a struggle. Norwalk is famous for its $1.00 pound of Ice Cream. The line can get very, very long


Former Indy Hemi Shoot Out R/U Jim Keyes brought his SS/AH out of a 6 year rest with fresh Barton bullet


The are 8 AA/G exhibition cars here and all are first class and mostly period correct. These age cool.


And speaking of cool, the Klein Nomad made the long trip from Nebraska

Quick update from the track. Some light showers passed thru the area early this morning. The jet dryer is running at 8:12 and the skies are clear. Racing starts at 9:00.

Good Luck this weekend Mike. I know the cell phone signal has always been an issue at the track. Standing on top of someone RV helps. I don't think it matters what provider you have either.

Part of the Norwalk customer experience is coffee and donuts in the morning.




Now for the news that matters. Stock and S/S will not get the Q3 run and will go directly into round 1 at mid day. S/S got their Q2 run done by around 10:30 last nite.

S/ST just got called to the staging lanes followed by S/G.

Bob-----Got to be one of the top 5 coolest stockers out there today. Cool beautiful and fast .

[Michael Beard]

They're catching up with Q2 for SST, SG, SC, and then we'll go into E1 of Stock and Super Stock. Any new entries today will be put on the bottom of the sheet.

Ran a number of SST, now down for just an itty bitty sprinkle. Should pass.
