Re: LIVE from Martin, MI Nitro Jam
After a delay, got back to running. Won Rnd 2 of No-Box when my guy shifted low to high. Had another sprinkle, but they're back at it after another delay.

Re: LIVE from Martin, MI Nitro Jam
SS: Clayton over Cummings (-004 breakout)
Stk: Folk over Boertman (red) Moser Axle Mania 1/4-Finals, Myron Piatek (Stk) defeated a red-lighting Brian Folk (Super Rod). Folk is still in with his Top Dragster, and will run Brandon Peterson (SS) to complete the round (been running Funny Car while we waited for Folk to get back, and then had an oildown.). If Folk wins, he'll have to run Piatek AGAIN, in the semis. Bo Upton and Dave Elrod (both dragsters) are going into the semis... Here they come... SS/Production Deuce vs a Top Dragster, 6.90 to 4.80. (1/8th mile, no Crosstalk). Tree's in shadow... Folk's out -.003, Peterson's dead-on ZERO! It'll be two bottom-bulb class cars going head to head, and 2 dragsters. Peterson drives for Homer Carty, who has a Win and a RU in this event.

Re: LIVE from Martin, MI Nitro Jam
$22,500 to win, $7,500 to runner -up, all thanks to Moser Engineering. (And they fed everybody, too!). Myron Piatek, footbraking a Stocker, taking on Bo Upton's dragster. Myron has dreamed of winning this event, just so he can hoist not only the custom Moser Axle trophy, but also his Converse AllStars to signify the dominance of Footbraking over delay boxes... Will it be this year?

Re: LIVE from Martin, MI Nitro Jam
Myron's -.004 under for the RU, but a huge payday nonetheless, and a great showing once again for the Stock contingent.

Re: LIVE from Martin, MI Nitro Jam
Great job Myron, he is one of the best!!
Thanks Mike for keeping everyone updated. It is sad that there were only 38? stockers at that race. I remember when there was usually 70+ cars. I guess it is a sign of the times. Jeff Day #3731 PS. Hey Mike, anyone from Martin planning on coming to Quaker City next weekend for the bottom bulb race? Last edited by jdfpam; 08-15-2010 at 12:17 AM. Reason: forgot to ask Mr Beard a question!! |
