Dave said it all, not a good day for record setting. I caught three cars at the top of the staging lanes doing what ever it takes to lower the records.

They ran all of SS except the Hemi cars which are in lanes, then it started to spit rain, then some big drops started. By the time Iwalked back to my rig, it stpped raining and the sun came out. They maybe resuming running in a few minutes, I think the Hemi cars are still in the lanes 11:50 am

yup they are running them now
