I stopped down today for a while and the weather was ugly. My old bar was huffing getting down the track. I don't know how much trouble cars had getting any bite as I only saw a few go down the track but I noticed they were spraying the starting line around the 7th or so pair of stockers. Not a criticism but only a suggestion, would it be that difficult to put a quad or a pickup and a few personnel behind the moving wall section at finishline? A few stockers had troubled runs and it took a long time to get them off the track. When you're dealing with a 6PM curfew and that many cars it seems that you'de want to speed things along.

Good morning everyone, I will give my morning report as I'm sure Jack will also. No rain yet, but they are calling for chance of thunderstorm as the day goes on. Sunday looks to be over cast with a slight chance of rain in the afternoon.

Weather numbers for today are about the same as yesterday with lots of humidity, the current numbers are...

Temp 71
Humid 72%
Bar 29.72
DA 1800ft
wind light tail

The video below is Joe Santangelo driving Arnie Martel's 2012 SS/AS Camaro. Its hard to see from the angle, but Joe was in a wheelstand for quite bit.

Smile Re: Live from Englishtown, NJ - NHRA Lucas Oil Series

Good morning kids - Well here it is - at this moment the Sun is shining brite and the ducks are quacking outside my window so I guess the world is OK for the time being .But the forecast for later today is not so nice as thunder storms are headed our way this afternoon .

This AM the gates opened at 7 and so far I've watched about a half dozen come thru and as I stated last night they will be teched and placed at the bottom of their ladders .

Speaking of last night - I spent some time reading the newest issue of Drag Racing Scene and there was two nice articles by Johnny D - one about Jeff Teuton and another on Dan Fletcher - check them out - great reading.

Threw in a few pics from yesterday - see who really like wheat thins enough to bring them to the starting line ..............later

Question Re: Live from Englishtown, NJ - NHRA Lucas Oil Series

Wow. Saw that yellow Calif plate,reminded that in 1960 when I was about six, my parents bought a brand new 60 Chevy Impala hardtop from C.S. Mead Chevrolet on Colorado Blvd in Pasadena, later it was Service Chevrolet where you could get your car dyno tuned by Don Nicholson, and the license number was THV 996. Close to that plate above! A few years later, we moved to the scenic Rogue Valley in southern Oregon,that Cal plate got turned in for Oregon license plate 9N 942. Pacific Wonderland plate, as well. Four years later, we moved back, and we lived here ever since in So Cal. After Mom passed in 2007, my brother and I were cleaning out the house and I found both those Oregon plates. One of them is on the back of my Chevelle, the other is on my wagon. Family keepsake, I guess.Incidentally, gasoline in this state, is $3.49 for 87 octane, the premium is 3.79. Every May, gas goes up about 65-80 cents,stays that way all summer, then slowly drops in the early fall.Real nice of them.

$3.49? I paid $2.85 at Costco in San Dimas yesterday. Still too high, but better than $3.49
