From the looks at Rd 2 the D/A and the Barometer were figured out. 2 TT's is really all you need to figure out where your Car is.

Photos from John DiBartolomeo Drag Racing Edge Magazine. I have photos also, but I have not had time to edit them, check back tomorrow sometime and I should have them done.

Morning and welcome to a wet Day #4. A good sized thunderstorm popped up and has now drenched the place so there will be a delay once everything gets dry. I must say it was cool to see Nitro at night time. It’s been some time since that has happened because Etown was the last place for me to see it.

I know R3 of SG is not posted on DRC due to them having to re-run 1 pair that I know of. Laboose & Napier will have to be re-run due to a lazy photo cell or hanging cell at the 60 foot cone, they disallowed Al Kenny’s 6.10 qualifying pass in TD due to the same thing and his 60 foot being an .8– something. So with the rain I’m not sure when that will happen as they were supposed to do it last night but had a good oildown in Alky & WJ hitting the wall with the match race car, which pushed them backed to the trailer for the night.

Chuck, I do think two time runs should be ok, just a lot of people were upset due to always getting 4 at Indy (the word on the street), 1st round Friday but, one got cut to the parking craziness (not the racers fault) and the added classes cut another one. For all the other classes they got 3 (TD & TS) and you have class with Stock & SS and 2 TT. It is what it is, I had a good time and would do Indy again if the stars aligned correctly.

Hope you guys and gals all enjoyed the live from, we pulled out about 9am this morning and are calling it a night a little south of Pittsburgh. I know only Stock & SS saw the track today as they had rain, Oil Downs and a Pro Mod Crash that sent some classes back to the trailer. So tomorrow will be slammed as they have 7 rounds of Stock & SS, 6 Rounds of Comp, 4 Rounds of Alky, 5 Rounds of TS & TD and 5 Rounds of SG & 4 of SC along with the Pros. So I think it will be another late day / night at Indy!

I'm not sure I follow the part about timer adjustments not responding as usual, but I don't claim to know everything and any barometer reading over 29 is great where I'm usually racing.

Lenny, Rob throttle stops at the top end, lots of variables, wind, track prep down there etc....
