I got a text from Greg Rowe and he said they are supposed to run at 8am tomorrow but he doesn't believe he can get out of his pit area. Must've been a monsoon down there.
Very nice pictures Ken, can I ask what kind of camera you are using?

Some areas are pretty muddy. We will see tomorrow. SS ladder will change. My son Joey is here, had problems, could not make the first round. Was in line for the second when the rain hit. He is not on the sheet. I have made NHRA aware. Should go from67 ladder to 68. There was a lot of rain here today. Forecast is not good. This will be a tough call.

I think the replacement head's extra 10 HP make it a natural A car.

Jeff, there are at least 2 other Ladder problems that you should be aware of in Superstock,

I don't know what imaginary guide you are looking at but the guide on nhraracer.com for 1970 Chevrolet Chevy II 402 with a stick doesn't show 8.45, it has exactly what I posted before.
