Re: "Live" from St. Louis AAA Ins. Midwest Nat'l 2017
Im kind new at this, but the weather: 52.2 degrees, 90%, baro 29.75, AA 308'. It could be fast.
All the Showdown cars I spoke with are planing a pit stop at the edge of the round track stands to cool and re-ice inter coolers. On the plus side of being this far from the starting line, the oil will be hot for the XX cars. I did notice some showdown teams are in the pits with the "Pros", I wonder if a teams pit placement will affect performance and the outcome of the race. More later, got to get ready for Q1. The Hay in the pits is cut, raked, and ready to bailed. |

Re: "Live" from St. Louis AAA Ins. Midwest Nat'l 2017
NHRA, in my opinion, is two for two on the racetrack not being prepared properly for first qualifying attempt,Charlotte was bad and so was St. Louis. Sixty foot was 1.387 for Charlotte and 1.380 at Gateway, Q2 at Charlotte was 1.331 in sixty, I hoping to see the same improvement (.05) on Q2 later today. I wonder if they forgot what they did at Indy, Indy was great.
Cross your fingers. Is value for the dollar spent with NHRA reduced to hoping that the track is good? The good thing about a data recorder is they show you what happened. |

I heard there was no scales or fuel check for the first round.

So, with no scales, do those rounds count against the AHFS?
