Jimmy made us his deer stew in Nobile last fall. It was kick-***. His cajun shrimp was awesome also. Good luck in class today!

Well it is a beautiful, but damp morning here. Heavy, heavy dew. It is so bad, I thought it had rained overnight. They just came around and called stock up. We get 2 runs, then class. Thanks ya'll for the good wishes.

I guess over the years, I have been spoiled by the good announcing of Leo Tougher and Allen Rhinehart and Bob Unkefer. They need to teach the announcer at South Georgia about announcing. He never told who was running but about half of the first round. I am sure he doesn't read this, but we want to know who is going down the track and at the time they are running! Anyway, looking forward to some great announcing and great racing today. More later.

71 stockers went down for 1st run. Air was about 500'. Fitzsimmons is #1 at 1.17 under. Johns in his wrecked car went 1.02 under. 9 B/SA cars.

A few picked up 2nd round, but most slowed 1 or 2. Ficacci got him some automatic HP at 1.32 under.
More later. They are running super stock now, then stock class. Buggs Dennis just oiled the track, so we are down for a little bit.

Thanks for the pictures. But they keep me asking the same question I've been asking since I bought that comp car and found out a chef came with it (Al Ackerman)-what the best part about racing-the racing or the eating?

Larry Hill · 03-08-2012, 03:16 PM
