Bobby Fazio thanks for being there also and doing a video.

I have a question about one of the cars there. Car number J218 John Astrab 69 Mustang 428, is that Eric Waldo's old car. Just curious. Heard it was down south, haven't seen that car in a few years. Thanks.

Yep, that is definitely the car! I have seen pictures where remnants of the old "Eric Waldo" lettering are visible.

Good morning. Here is Super Stock Q2 lanes and starting line action.

[Ken Miele]

Hey guys, Stock is running 2nd round Class. We had some down time about halfway through, around 40 minutes. The winds are gusting pretty strong and blowing sand on to the track. We are back running as the winds have died down just a bit.

Final Q sheets...

Hey guys... this video is a little self serving, but I need to thank Micro Strategies for making it possible to race. Thanks to Chris Epps for shooting the video.

All went well, but we did finish late having some down time because of the wind.

Good morning everyone, start time is 8:30 with the Juniors, followed by 2nd round Super Street then 1st for Stock. The weather numbers are below, rain is supposed to hit by noon, but who knows.

A quick note... there are 565 plus cars here, what does that say about the state of Drag Racing. Why do we keep coming?

Congratulations to Emily Volkman and Joe Tysinger on their class wins yesterday. Two of the classiest people and families in drag racing. Good luck today. Hope to see you two race for the Wally.

Here's a few more minutes of some random Stock & Super Stock action. Burnouts, launches, and finish line views. Enjoy.
