Hi Gang - We pulled in yesterday afternoon greeted by sunshine and blue skies along with temps in the low eighties .The track had their Wednesday night mufflered cars running with some being out and out race cars that were quiet .After a beautiful sunset everyone went to sleep only to be woke up around 2AM to thunder and lots of the wet stuff .So much for peace and quiet.It continued off and on till it quit around 10 AM .Things were looking up for todays test n tune .Sun came out and the drying began .Until a half hour ago when the skies opened up again .It has now stopped and the Sun is back out but we'll see if the TnT takes place ........

So the Test n Tune did happen today but the number of participants were low with more in the Super categories than Stock/SS .Track seemed to hook well for most and even a few Alcohol cars showed the track could handle horsepower .

Good morning - In an hour or so we'll start our Lucas Oil race # 4 here in Division 1 with from what I've seen is a light turnout .Good news is the Sun is shining with temps in the mid-sixties and climbing .Back after the first Q runs .......

I counted 85 Stockers and 65 Super Stock.

Mark Yacavone · 06-10-2022, 02:19 PM

Video was rolling plenty early.
Someone asked why Stock is first?
So that they can forget to turn on Live Timing (oxymoron), and nobody cares ;-)

So far so good - Stock has made their second Q run with Barry Parker coming from the #19 spot all the way to the top with a -1.02 under the B/SA index run .S/S is being led so far by Pat Aubin with a -1.06 under his SS/LA index.

Tim Sickles brought out his new 1981 Chevy - 'Malibu Breeze' S/S car - GT/NA with show quality paint and fine craftsmanship - he'll win awards for sure .

Pete, Looks like they are just now running a clean up session.
Maybe we'll see a Q sheet soon, if the Friday afternoon janitor at NHRA flips the switch.

DRC has the Qualifying sheet up now.
