Live from HOT Tulsa

It is down to 90 at 9 pm from a high of 99.6 on my weather station. DA got as high as 4350 this afternoon. 35 super stockers and I think I heard 43 stockers. The car count is lower than expected, maybe the heat kept some away. Everything went about as planned with not much down time. All classes got 3 qualifying passes. Eliminations start at 8 am.

Are they letting any spectators in?
Thanks

Whew! I'll bet the heat is brutal, Gary. Keep us posted on things if/when you have a chance. Thanks!

Hi Will,
Yes they are but typical of a LODRS here not many. I went out to watch yesterday, quite a few cars but not the 500 many were expecting.

There were very few spectators. We broke a transmission in rd 1. Loaded up and got the h—- out of there. Maybe it was a mercy killing. Oh yeah I heard Bob Unkfer say the car count was 370. My guess the extreme heat kept a few folks away. This is why DIV 4 schedules it’s races in the spring and fall.
