Amazing! As soon as the last finals ran, the rain started! Mother Nature truly granted us a break!

Re: "Live" from Down South!!!
BELLE ROSE, La. - Results of final, round 6 eliminations in Super Stock at the NHRA, 12th annual JEG'S.com Cajun SPORTSnationals:
Car#-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT-----ET-- Speed-----Car#-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT-----ET-- Speed 213A Anthony Bertozzi 6 Joe Santangelo E6 ****WINNER**** 0.010 8.851 145.28 0.006 8.714 150.70 SS/AM Dial: 8.85 (+/-): 0.001 SS/AS Dial: 8.72 (+/-): -0.006 Prior rounds: E5 (H Gary ) 0.006 8.890 0.040 -0.003 8.787 0.027 E4 (B Skillman ) 0.034 8.925 0.075 (B Bakies ) 0.018 8.797 0.037 E3 (N Lapointe ) 0.011 8.868 0.018 (D Rampy ) 0.007 8.755 0.045 E2 (M Crutchfiel) 0.006 8.904 0.054 (J Hidalgo ) 0.033 8.714 -0.006 E1 (J Teuton ) 0.002 8.915 0.065 (D Christen ) 0.021 8.818 0.098 Santangelo with the starting line advantage, but took too much stripe to give Bertozzi the win. Bertozzi wins the Cajun SPORTSnationals for the fourth time and second time in Super Stock. This is his 18th National event win. Yeah ,Joey took a hundredth of a second @ 150 mph ..Doesn't sound too bad to me . Two of the best right there, fans.

Re: "Live" from Down South!!!
Goes to show that those "professional" weather personnel cannot get it right! Weather has been really nice considering the forecast. Small amount of rain last night and that was it.
Lots of good folks/racers did not come to a race that they really enjoy because of the forecasters. Sad that they were wrong and many did not make the race.

Re: "Live" from Down South!!!
Sorry y'all didn't go farther. Hope to see you at ZMAX, but I think y'all are already home or on the way back to Kentucky. Thanks for all the great pictures and reporting. See you at Classnationals in August.

Re: "Live" from Down South!!!
For a wrap up of our "Down South" trip! We are now back home in Kentucky. We had a wonderful time for 6 weeks down south while the weather was awful up here! Thanks to Chris and Keisha and all the folks in the shop for keeping everything going while we were away! (of course they do that when we are here, too, since we are retired now, we just try to stay out of their way!) We really enjoyed seeing and spending time with lots of friends while we were there like the Teutons, Helms, Jim and Pam Marshall, Joe and Alice Tysinger, the Hidalgos and everyone else that we just get to see at the racetrack!!
The weather was really great except for that little streak of cold in Gainesville. Not much rain except for the week that we were not racing. Hopefully we will get a chance to make this trip again next year if the schedule stays close to the same. Although 6 weeks is a long time to be gone! We were ok up to 5, but then we were definitely ready to come home to see family, friends and pets!! Here are a couple more pictures: This is my time taking buddy Miss Shelby Hall, daughter of Rusty and Kelly. She helped me write down times while Mommy and Daddy raced. I now know the life stories of Elsa and Anna from "Frozen"!! These are our new aprons made and given to us by the Gary Family Racing team. Thanks guys, we love them! We will see you out there racing soon! We have to catch up on laundry and watch Kentucky hopefully go 40-0 and win the national championship!! See ya soon!! |
