Hey, they're racing in California. That could very well be a Sunflower :D

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Now that's funny! Well maybe not.:rolleyes:Jim

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

I think it is funny.....kind of like a few on the "Lounge" of this forum who are living in Calif.

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

nice :)

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

What's with all these time trials? Racers at this event are going to need to freshen up their engines if they give any more time trials.

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Phil said that the trans went into 2nd at shutdown, which caused him to lose control. He crossed into the right lane and hit the wall. A lot of damage to the front & rear of the car. Phil is fine. Short shut down had nothing to do with it!

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Well, we may have lost Bill O'Connor from the top of the list at Fontana but Chuck Blossom is a FWD low qualifier at Great Bend!

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Not that I consider this to be a surprise, but a LOT of sandbagging going on from what I can see on video...

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Even so, I am still very proud of Bill! His car is probably the purest Stocker there. Jim

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Thanks for all your videos Toby. I was surprised to see Greg Gay out there with his C/SA Mopar. A long way from Vermont.
Keep up the good work and I hope you leave with a Wally.

Stock staging lanes Q5 will be next then Super Stock class round 1. Hopefully, I will get those uploaded tonight. I have all rounds of class I just need some time to get them encoded and uploaded.

I told Jim "I hope that Wally was worth it." :)

Great job on the video's :D

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Thanks Dave.
How have you been? Long time since NEDragway. Are you making the divisional there? I'm sure Dean will be there. Looks like a rainout for the All Stars today up here in Epping. :(

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Toby raining here in Arcadia - should we hurry out?

Back together at 12:30a

:-) peace

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Toby keep up the good reporting .................thanks

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Yes, it was raining this morning. It's barely sprinkling right now. We were supposed to start at 9 AM this morning. Don't think that will happen. It's fairly cool right now. It's gonna have to warm up a little first before they will be able to get the track dry.

Here's Super Stock class round 2:

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Thanks for all the reporting Toby.
It's raining here in Cucamonga now.

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Good Luck Toby!

Thanks for the videos! I hope to be seen in one sometime. That would mean I actually got the old Wagon to the racetrack, instead of following on the damn computer! :)

Rain over, clearing up, sunny spots between clouds. Heading that way. You guys will probably get this pulled off yet!!('>')

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

The sun is out! It's still pretty cloudy though.

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Toby,

Thanks for your reporting and video's, it was nice to finally meet you
in person yesterday.

Also thanks for encluding me in your Stock Eliminator Qualifing #5
in the lanes video talking to Mike Loge.

Remind me to switch to black T-shirts supposed to be much more
slimming on camera. :-)

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

What is the deal with Bob Earleywine DQ then reinstated with no time on SS qualifing?

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

great job Toby! Do the cars go under that interstate bridge? sure seems like it but I know its probly further away.

thanks for your effort! Im soooo bored!

Stacy

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Stacey,

The bridge you see past the shut off area is actually Cherry Avenue
and it is farther away than it looks. The street is outside of the race
facilites property.

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Well, what I heard was he used to run the car as a stick. So he claimed the stick HP when he put an automatic in. The HP factor with an automatic is different, so he was light on all his qualifying runs.

It's up to the director's discretion, but pretty much the same thing happened at the Vegas national last month to Craig Scheer. He broke an input shaft on his tranny and didn't get the part in time to make a qualifying run, but they didn't put him on the sheet. Doesn't make much sense to me.


-Toby

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

There are two catch fences leading up to the road also.


-Toby

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

Thanks for the video's, Toby. Enjoyed the video as you walked up the staging lanes, Stock Q5. Looks like a lot better weather than we have had here in Ohio.

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
 

A super comp dragster crashed. They haven't run anything for about a half an hour.

Re: Live from the JEGS Pacific SPORTSnationals
