"Live" from Rockingham
 
For Larry and Patsy: we'll try this from the IHRA side. We're in and parked; car count looks great and the company is even better. We'll check in in the morning to let you know more!

Thanks for the update. About how many cars would you guess are there now? Weather appears to be going to be good.

Why 1/8th mile?

Marc Kinton 03-20-2010 05:12 PM

Re: "Live" from Rockingham
 
Ed, this is our only 1/4 mile track in div 9 so we run all our div races 1/8th mile.

Just finished 1st round of the combo and I got my first round win!

Great day, great people, great time.

Weather was great, just got home with Jr Dragsters, we had a rough day breaking stupid stuff, but my boys had fun and its what we do. And besides even though we broke a motor my 14 year old is ready to pull the motor off in the morning, RACING IS STILL CHEAPER THAN REHAB, I say that alot but I mean it. There is so much stuff to get into these day and racing is very safe next to all the other crap. just my .02....now back to Rockingham, Track seemed to work good all day, Top Stock was in the finals when I left. Jack Zimmerman VS Mark Beavers car in the final I think. Keep the updates coming tomorrow.

Re: "Live" from Rockingham

Thanks for the picks! 'Ole Thunderchicken looks good out there. -.008 red today 2nd round but sure enjoyed getting my first ever round win today in the stocker. Good weekend and it sure is nice to race against some of the best racers in the world! I had a blast and can't wait for Piedmont. Maybe wwe'll even do another "live" from there if you guys want. Thanks again for letting me be a part of class racing!

Congrats to Brian Rowe for the stock win over "Lil" Dewayne and Clay Bullard winning S/S over the "Kid" Cory Taylor.
