Larry, Greg Hill was inquiring about the DQ's in stock on another thread. Do you have any info about them?

Dad get's to race the EF/S.

The EF/S gets an EIGHT second head start and the closing speed differnce will be 50 mph! Dad needs to be within a motorhome length of the car at the first MPH light. This one will be fun to watch and race in.

Patsy,

Bob Frey has the story for DRC ready for Larry to review. If you have received it by e-mail, please reply to Bob and let him know. If not, he has printed a hard copy for you.

Re: "Live" from the Western Swing
 

Thanks Dave, we finally got the email and took the copy down to the announcers booth this morning.

On the DQs: Brandt's fuel did not check on his first run, then he was never able to make another run. The car wouldn't start or something 2 other times he came up to race. Koski made 1 pass, but it was bad and he did not weigh or fuel check. Young blew up 1st pass and did not weigh or fuel check.

So now we are on our 3rd ladder, but everything is finally set.

It is another great day here in Denver. It is supposed to be a lot cooler today. 81 for the high. When we run it will probably be about 70, so it should be fun to dial!

Something I would like to commend Bandimere Raceway on that I have not seen at any other track. If you go over to the credential upgrade booth in the morning each day, they will upgrade your crew ticket to a reserved seat for the day. That is really great. I was able to get tickets over close to the outside railing to where I could use going down. These are really great grandstands for spectators, but if you don't like heights, it can be scary--especially going down the steps with no railings.

I have a few pics that I will try to post later.

They haven't posted today's schedule on DRC yet, but they start with a time trial for Super gas and super stock which they missed yesterday, then round 1 of super street and stock.

Larry,

Looks like you are clear for a while on heads up races! Good luck!

Re: "Live" from the Western Swing
 

Thanks, Kevin.

We got by round 1 after Stan red-lighted. Larry had it dialed pretty well, but the car isn't hooking here at all. We have a tough run with Scott Burton next.

More later.

Re: "Live" from the Western Swing
 

Well the car finally hooked a little better and we lost in a double-breakout. Larry had a .010 light to Scott's .013. Then Scott broke out .01 and Larry broke out .03.

Well we are going to get packed up this afternoon and back on the road whenever we can get out.

More later.
