Was just checking the posted results on DRC and they seem to be way behind. Are there weather issues or down time on the track due to issues there???

Ellis, there was no discernible explanation for the surprising number of single runs other than random breakage. By the end of the day yesterday we had heard that Clark Holroyd was broken and that Tom Brown was headed home after slowing inexplicably on the second and third run. There were no teardowns and, as far as I know, no disqualifications.
Due to the overnight rains, it took until approximately 9 AM to get the track into condition for racing. There was no precipitation after sunrise but the humidity was high, the sun was blocked by the departing storm and and the temperature was low. This morning, as per usual practice in Division 7, three pairs were designated to be in the lanes first to begin eliminations. All the broken-car singles were sent to the front of the lanes so the day began with what seemed like an inordinate number of singles. Other than one extended oil-down that occurred during the seventh pairing, the round was uneventful. Re-capping afterward, there seemed to be common agreement that ETs recorded after about half the field had run seemed to improve unexpectedly although not all weather stations picked up noticeable variations. It's not much of an explanation but that's what I saw. c

Thanks for the update on morning conditions. I figured something was causing a slight delay. Sounds like the rest of the day went according to schedule.

A few thoughts on the Round two "Monster-Match" between Dan and Peter. Doubt that was the way they planned the ladder, but maybe there was a better reason to have it that way. It's gonna be interesting in that it will be the first lap of the day, instead of toward the end of a race where they are hot lapping and able to fine tune the dial a little bit, as well as tree. Don't think there's much chance that either will not be able to run the dial on the car. Would love to see the race, just hope there is a nice safe race with no red light and no front tire smoke. Hopefully they will announce the total National Event Wins between the two drivers
