Re: Live from Pomona

Re: Live from Pomona

Thanks Beth for your live report. Here are some photos that John DiBartolomeo, Editor of DRAG RACING ACTION Magazine www.dragracingaction.com sent me.

Re: Live from Pomona

What class is Alex McClanahan in? It is showing her in A/S with a 10.60 index. Either the class is wrong or the index is wrong????

Re: Live from Pomona

I think they are both wrong. Last year the car was AA/SA.

Re: Live from Pomona

They have Alex right now. She's in CC/SA.
And she gets Fletcher first round. How long has it been since he's been beaten by a girl? LOL

Re: Live from Pomona

Beautiful weather this morning - it was 60 F track temp when we went down. Barometer not as good as yesterday morning, but the track really came around today. A lot of people picked up this morning in Stock - most by a hun or two. Not quite so many picked up in Superstock.

Abe Lowen broke his rear end right off the starting line today. I hate to see that for anyone....being towed by a four wheeler down the quarter mile stinks to high heaven!

Ladder is up for us and we have a lot of C/SA cars on our side. Potenial third round heads up for us. And there could be a very interesting 2nd round heads up if both Calvert and Shaul get by.....

Re: Live from Pomona

Beth, if Calvert and Shaul both get through it won't be as close as you think. Calvert's is a under rated 428 (397 HP)Holbrook motored car. Thats 8 HP less than the 396-375 Aluminum head motor and makes at least 20 more hp than the best 396 motor in the country.

Dont you remember this?

It was a gorgeous morning, barely a whisper of a cross wind. Sun on the track warmed it to just the right sticky. It was gorgeous.

Watched stock from the starting line and superstock from the stands. I took lots of pictures and am just now going through them and will post them as I can.

Alcohol funny car oiled the track a few times and we have been down off and on all afternoon. Running TAD now, then the pros and then our second round. This is the important round since we run E1 tomorrow afternoon as well.

At least one stocker didn't get on the sheet as he broke in the staging lanes and I don't know if he is terminal. I am sorry, I didn't get his name.

Lots and lots of lifting today too. Will be interesting to see how the sheet finally shakes out. Pictures later....for now I want to soak up this SUN!!!

Beth... You Rock! Thank you very much!
