Rain delay, it should be over soon, but track drying will take some time. The Cobra Jet gets washed.

Thanks guys, it's always nice to go rounds. Congrats to Cody on his win and Monty Joe on his runner up.

Sorry for the lack of reports. It was good day racing weather wise. Today's racing went very smooth, we finished class. It was a good day, and I have thank the parking crew and Cody our D2 director. With oil downs and weather we got it it all done in a timely manner.

Ken, where can I find the completed ladder for stock eliminator? Did they also run SS eliminator?

Do people have to move spots for the big Gators or can they stay where they are ?

If you park where the pros normally park you have to move. If you park in normal sportsman parking for the Gatornationals you can stay.

I thought DRC would have it up by now, but they have not updated since Friday.

Hey guys, its a test day for the pro's and they were testing for a few hours, but the rain hit and they way the radar looks, I think they will be done for the day. Nat many cars out, but I did find a few being worked on just before the rains came.

Hey guys, no cars out today yet, but as you can see from the photos some pits spots are a flooded. We had heavy rain over night, but he rest of the week looks good. If cars come out of the trailers, I will get some photos later today.

Hey guys, i'm back... I did find some cars out, but most are in the trailers. I took another ride through the pits, I will have that video up later tonight. Not much happening today as far as the Sportsman go. The Showdown cars came in yesterday and today, and many of them are wrenching and getting ready. For many this is the first race of the year.

I'll be back later...

Unless I've overlooked it I'm not seeing that car on the Qualifying sheet for this race but he is listed for the baby Gators.

I agree Jake. I understand the need for enclosed trailers, but an open trailer is so OLD SCHOOL. I have a friend here in the Northwest that has a 2 car open trailer. It is aluminum and holds both of his cars plus his golf cart. It is very long, but PEGS the cool meter in my book.

Good morning guys, Stock has been called to the lanes. We are suppose to get only one round today, but they just announced that we might get one later tonight. The weather looks good, partly sunny with temps around 80, Weather conditions this morning are about the same as yesterday morning.

Be back later...

Hey guys, well it was a tough first round for Stk/SS. From what I saw many could not run their dial, including me. We are still on standby for another round depending on how the day goes.

Stock photos from yesterdays qualifying, Super Stock up next.

Any particular reason Ken?

Ken Miele 03-08-2024 08:57 PM

Re: "Live From" Gainesville Raceway 2024
 
I'm guessing the possibility of rain late tomorrow.

Good morning folks, Stock will be out for round 3 at 8AM. We finished up last night around 10:30. Its cloudy out with temps in the low 70's going up to the low 80's and rain is expected late in the day.

I will be hitting the road in a few hours. 2 1/2 weeks and its time to hit the road and head home. I will do a video on the way home, I hope you all enjoyed the Live From. My next race will be the 4 wide in Charlotte April 26th.

A few more photos from the Gators...
