Did a pro stock bike go down? Live timing has been stuck on Underall and Bostik for a while.

DRC has the bikes listed by points so guessing they called it for the night.

When the track temperature got below 70 degrees, they called it for the day (night). They had just started pro bike.

From what I understand, a PS bike oiled down the track. They called it after that. I assume track temp and estimated cleanup time made up their minds.

I take it the speed makes it unsafe you say. I was kind of impressed by the 1.20 60'.time as well as the E.T. and mph. Not my call what a tire can take.

Are FSS cars limited to a spec 9" tire, or do they have options? Can they fit a 10" or 10.5" tire without requiring mods that wouldn't allow them to fall back into regular Stock if desired?

Ken Miele · 03-13-2022, 08:29 AM

FSS, only 9 inch tires are permitted,

Good morning everyone... Its 35 as type, and the high for day is supposed to be 59. The winds have died down, its sunny... but man its cold.

We are still scheduled to get one qualifier after the finals today. Stk, SS, SC, SG and TS are all schedule to run a qualifier and time shot after all finals except Top Alcohol Dragster, they will have their final after us.

More photos from last weeks race. I hope to get some photos of Stock and Super Stock but with the fields being so small I may not have time today. I should be able to get the Showdown cars today.

A “Thank you” to the guys running the pumper trucks that were sucking the water up in the pit areas yesterday. I had 4” of water in my pit area after 3 days of rain. They did not get to the “triangle area” until late in the day, but at least they made a great effort in the dark. Maybe with some luck, I’ll be able to get out of here. The spectator crowds were huge yesterday considering the cold and windy conditions.
