Live from Pomona -- NHRA World Finals

[Jack Matyas]

Here it is kids - the best racing in the world - in my humble opinion racing on Parker Avenue is even bigger than Indy - no circus stuff -- just heritage . Me , I'm just glad to be here -- after everything that has gone on during the last week this surely will be like a vacation .

Still some champs to be crowned here -- and I was extra glad for Lee Zane yesterday bringing the Stock World Championship trophy back to Division One .

Called home this morning and it seems the frost is on the pumpkin as they say-- but here in Sunny southern California -- well its shorts and short sleeves -- you get the picture .

Tech is open this afternoon for most competitors and there are several hundred on the grounds allready -- doesn't anyone work ? ? After that its going to be a little R&R -- my old butt is really draggin'...........later .
