"Live From" 2025 US Nationals

Hey guys, yeah... its raining. Not sure how many class cars are left. We had some rain that put racing on hold. It stopped and the track was almost dry, but the rains are back. The rain is supposed quit for good within the next hour or two.

I did get to run my class, and did come away with a win. It was a bitter sweet win as my good friend Tony Fagnilli in his COPO had the faster car, but because of the AFHS he did not want to get hit with HP. If he gets hit, he can no longer run AA. When looking at the time slip if he stayed into it, he would have ran between a 8.41 and 8.43. It would have been a great race and he probably would have got the win. Now he might not even qualify.

Not sure if other class cars are going through this issue, but its a dam shame when you can't let you car eat, especially at Indy.

I recorded my class experience... I start at my pit, go all the way through for the win and my time at the tear down barn and more.... yes they wanted to see a few things on my car. I hope to have it up tonight, so check back and see what class racers go through at Indy for the coveted Class trophy.

I few more shots from the pits...
