Ken,

Thanks for the "Live From". Hopefully a lot of the racers there will be in Charlotte in April. I don't race but I love to take pictures of you guys racing. Looking forward to being in Rockingham end of this month. Was planning on two days at the Gators, but work got in the way.

Good luck to all in SGMP. It seems like a nice track.

I see Mark Faul won a heads-up race first round. Anybody have the numbers on it? Mark?

Re: Live from D2 Valdosta
 

No proble Butch, I hope to be at the 4 wide.

Here is my first round loss, I did a poor job on the dial and at the strip.

I will try to get some super stock video later.

Very cool camera shot Ken!

Re: Live from D2 Valdosta
 

Great stuff, Ken. Have you ever thought about mounting it elsewhere like on the grill or bumper? Or maybe mount it so it points into the other lane so you could see how much stripe somebody is taking? Just some thoughts.

Thanks for the great videos.

on the "Snake Faul" heads up run Mark got him 8 thou on the tree and numbers at big end was Mark's 11.22 to 11.16, ouch.

We (Rich South's car) won rd 1 over Wendell Howe as Rich had the tree and Wendell Broke out trying to get the win.

Nowicki won on a heads up battle and both Marshall's survived round one of SS

Peter won on a red light, Wes Jr try to visit his guy in the other lane in round one.
Both the Dennis cars won
Jimmy Spell killed AB on the tree but was stumbled doing a high wheelie and AB took the win
Winners will be posted on DRC soon

What happened to Brad Burton?

Re: Live from D2 Valdosta
 

Grace Howell beat him, Brad had a bad light

Re: Live from D2 Valdosta
 

It started to rain, and we are done for the day. I did not get a chance to get any video from Super Stock.


I will be leaving in the morning heading on down to Gainesville. Joe will get everyone up to date here in Valdosta.

Re: Live from D2 Valdosta

Nitro-
Did Faul become partners with Prudhomme?? If so, I did not hear anything??

Re: Live from D2 Valdosta
 

no, i just called him that after the round and we had a good laugh and thats all that was.
Just thought i would use it.
There was only one true "Snake" in drag racing and he was my #1 hero, Prudhomme
I have 90% of his die cast and model cars collection.

Re: Live from D2 Valdosta
 

Good Morning Sunday , Looks like I'll be working on stats for a bit as we got rain all night. They said last rain front is here for the day and as soon as this leaves us racing will start again. So sit back and watch SportsCenter and see how all my College Basketball teams did yesterday. Glad i have internet on this trip thanks to Rich South.
Will post later when we get going racing.

Re: Live from D2 Valdosta
 

Joe....Snake was my hero also growing up and the coolest cat out there.

Re: Live from D2 Valdosta
 

just called the index classes and T/D to the lanes think we will be going down the track arond 1230 or so
will post more later
Did work on stats this morning so thats a plus, thanks rich for having internet for me.

Re: Live from D2 Valdosta
 

sorry for not posting sooner but I have been out watching all the classes. It shows that it is 60 out but i feel I'm at the Indy open as we have a real bad head wind and its down right cold and the Super classes are having problems getting down the track. Rich survived another round and we have Martel Jr next round. The T/D & T/S was exceeding also as they used the track all up.
Get back with you later from (not warm) Valdosta, GA

"Nitro Joe"

Re: Live from D2 Valdosta

Re: Live from D2 Valdosta
 

Tell rich not to feel bad-Arnie Jr. is a good racer and a good guy-his first race ever he went to the finals in comp at the 2006 E-town points race-he lost to a car owned by one of your customers and driven by a two-time world champ in stock! LOL!
