Were the cars in each class that hard to keep together? Sure made it hard to see how many cars were in a class.

You have to keep in mind, this is NHRA and .....this is the post Redman era.....

NHRA does this at every event, round one is the worst out of order. When I put Class Videos together I move them together.
On another note, I just bought my All Access seeing how all my flights were cancelled and I couldn't attend the race. If the footage from Friday that I started to view from the first two events this year is any indication I should have saved my money.
Ken, keep the live feeds coming!!

Yes congrats to the Hills!! Great folks! Well deserved.
But you may have missed the MPH on the big guy's runs.

It's because class is on a ladder now. If two cars are paired up and ready to go, why not run them? If there were no ladder, they would have to wait until all cars are there and for the racers to figure out who gets the bye, if there is one.

I saw a lot of "fast e.t." and low MPH! Anyone get thrown out for "excessive braking" ??

How about that Stephen Bell winning the five round slug fest in FS/XX and went 8.18 @ 167. in the finals.

Congrats on class. You walked the tightrope all day and pulled off a very impressive win.

Not much on Roy Hill's 7.78 in Q1 of Super Stock. Pretty impressive and stockers running 170 MPH on 9 inch tires...wow.

Re 31: "Live" from our D-2 southern spring trip 2017
 
Well it is another COLD morning here at the Gatornationals! 31 right now and we are supposed to start running in 20 minutes! There has been nothing but static on the radio yet, so I assume that is not happening! Yesterday we started about an hour late and I imagine that will be the case today also.

Sorry I didn't do much posting yesterday, but class kept us busy all day!!

I just received a text that we are going to try to start by 8:45!

More later
