Live from Cecil County,MD NHRA Lucas Oil Series

Good morning gang - Welcome to day 1 of the D1 season .Yesterday during the T nT it was sunny with temps in the mid eighties and very little humidity . Downside was the unusual for here was the 29.5o barometer.Track was like i've not seen it ever before - mostly because about every 30 minutes or so during the TnT they stopped and sent out the new machinery and then sprayed .Can't remember a day when I've witnessed so many giant wheelies - hope today is the same .

Today at 9 they will send out Super/street followed by Stock - today weather wise looks like a carbon copy of yesterday -Summer arrived early here in Maryland!!!!!!

I'll check in after rd1 of Stock ........

Here is Stock, you will have to wait for DRC for Super Stock.

Good morning - Best thing I can say this morning is that Spring is back as the high today is to be low seventies - cloudy and at this moment I can hear pitter-patter on my roof .Nothing huge is expected but it might delay the start this AM.

Yesterday was terrific here at Cecil -yes it was hot but super conditions for sure with the track being in the best shape i've ever seen here .On the flip side of things the q-sheets really don't show the true performance of the Stock and S/S cars in attendance because of the large amount of 1000' passes.This 'new' way of controlling the fast cars isn't working - just making it boring. Hope the NHRA is listening .

This morning when we get started it will be juniors then SuperStreet followed by Stock.

Later ................

If you multiply 1000 (feet) X 1.19, it gives a good indication of what the 1/4 mile e.t. would be.

Why did they start eliminations first thing this morning and throw out 3rd TT/Q? Weather?
