4 FSS cars already in the 8.0s, with 9 more in the 8.1s! It's going to be fun to watch!

I know it's early but it's interesting to see how the Mopar lost so much MPH from the Bradenton race to the NHRA sanctioned Gainesville race.

Gary I will see what I can do.

Yesterday Jeff Adkinson was swapping engines in the first photo. A few photos from first round Super Stock. The internet is again slow today, but that's because of what looks like a sell out crowd. When the crowds thin out I will have more photos. We had a little down time in the morning with Eddie Longhany Jr hitting the wall in Stock and a Super Comp driver got out of shape at top end. It rolled a few times but he is okay.

You gotta love it when you see a hoist and a motor on the ground.
