Good morning - Brrrrrrrrrr - sure is chilly here this morning - furnace worked overtime last evening - can't tell you if its fast out but it sure is pretty with the Sun coming up this AM .Sometime between last Sunday and this morning my weather station got legs -- hmmmmm.

Back a little later ........

Almost forgot - so far we have eight "American Muscle" cars - it shaping up to be a great little race this afternoon ........And how about the driver of a '13 Mustang - Johnny Lightning -how cool of a name is that ? I'll get you a pic ............

Johnny Lighting is pretty well known in the NMRA and NMCA for his exploits with his Lightning trucks. He just picked up that mustang recently and I hope he does well. He is a good guy, you folks will enjoy him.

Nice pics by the way. thank you and keep them coming!

American Muscle got its time trial this morning - Joe Gabarine in his Challenger V10 was the class of the field @ 9.01 ...........

Ken Miele · 10-12-2012, 01:31 PM

The weather for this morning and present has not changed much, its a little slower then yesterday morning but only by 1 or 2 hundreds.

These are the numbers for today and most likely will not change much.

Temp 59
Humid 40%
BAR 29.65
DA 700ft
Wind tail 3-4mph

They are running stock class as I type and then the Factory Showdown . The car to beat will be Joe Garbarine's 2011 V 10 Challenger, he ran a 9.01@ 149.... WOW !

Congratulations to Carl Milano for setting the SS/LA record yesterday, with his Bad *** 65 289 C.I.Mustang. Good Job.
Late night re-assembly was a killer.
