Stock and Super Stock have finished for the day, 3 tt's and the schedule went smoothly. Dean Ribeiro is on top of the Stock list followed by John Shaul, Ron Infantano and Jame Perone(driving Ken Richard's Camaro) most slowed slightly in the third round of time trials today. It has been bright sun most of the day, and considering that, the track held up well.

1 final time run tommorrow and then 1st round . It will be super street at 1030 followed by stock.

No word on any penalties for the fake batteries

21 out of the 70 cars in Stock Eliminator is a '69 Camaro or Nova.

Also, kudos to Markow, LaBrecque and Bruneau in Super Stock.

When was the last time a truck won Super Stock Eliminator?

OK stupid question here, but if the battery in the front is "fake" where is the "real" battery? What's this all about? Is there a light weight battery under a fake case?

Dummy batteries up front is nothing new, the real battery is usually in the trunk for better weight transfer on the launch.
A few guys even run 12 volt wires to these dummys in case they are voltage checked.
