Larry DRC shows Fletch won s/g

Well, I think this is a first for Indy!! Nobody was tossed out in teardown! So the only alternates that will get in are for the cars who are broken (like us). And the first alternate #129 has left the grounds. Fletcher got beat in super gas this morning and left. I have a few more pics from today.

Fletcher won in S/G and is shown on the ladder for rd 2. I was listening at work and we laughed at how far under he was dialed.....opponent fouled.
He is also shown as the first alternate in Stock.......

Re: "Live" from Indy! 2010
 

Sorry about the misinformation about Dan Fletcher. He did win in SG, but he did load up and leave this morning. I found out later that he went somewhere to test! So I am sure he will be back by round 1 of stock in the morning.

Re: "Live" from Indy! 2010
 

Pasty, you are correct, Dan went to a local track to iron out some bugs.

I thought the Hemi shoot out was pretty cool, tight racing with to class acts in the final.

I was in the barn for short time, and I have say I am very impressed with Brian Wofle. He is Ford Executive, but has a passion for drag racing and has no problem getting his hands dirty. It was nice to see everyone get through and I guess that explained all the happy faces.

Hats off to Gary Richards getting into two class finals and getting one win, talk about a busy weekend, Gary has plenty of energy, I know I couldn't do it. Gary also has a great crew, Paul is the best.

Paul Adams, that is one bad *** T-bolt, well done.

Contrats to Tom Sheehan our resident photographer. He is pitted right next to me and oh yeah, he has the invite to the barn.
