Live from the Spokane LODRS
 

Stock and Super Stock got in one qualifying pass before it started raining. It's still raining right now. It will be a while before we start running again.

I wasn't going to post any video from this race because of the disappointing number of views my Bakersfield videos got, but I decided to give it another try. Here's Super Stock Q1:

Re: Live from the Spokane LODRS
 

LOVE the video Toby! Thanks for posting this. I REALLY wish I was there!

Good luck to you and Jody!

Re: Live from the Spokane LODRS
 

I just watched it too.... Thank YOU!!

Re: Live from the Spokane LODRS
 

I saw on dragracecentral where Paul Plummer (from Couer D Alene, Idaho ('70 Buick Stage1 455 - usual c/sa)....

Has Qualified #1 @ the Nitro Jam event in SLC, Utah, as an F/CM @ 10.900 (-1.280) on a 12.18 index...

To me, what's unusual about this, is the Spokane track is 45 mins. away tops, towing over from Couer D Alene.... SLC, UT is 12 Hours away!

With a first round bye, Paul hit a .000" light... lets hope you go a couple more rounds to make those miles really pay off.

Congrats!!

Re: Live from the Spokane LODRS
 

They have pulled the plug on today's racing activities. Plan for tomorrow is to give everybody who didn't get a run today two runs tomorrow and everybody else will get one more run before going into eliminations. Hopefully the rain will hold off tomorrow.

Thanks for all the kind words.

Re: Live from the Spokane LODRS
 

Thanks for the video Toby. I appreciate your efforts. You do a great job..

Re: Live from the Spokane LODRS
 

Hey Toby, please don't quit with the video work, perhaps the low number of views has to do with the weather warming up and more of us being at the track, just sayin' ....

Thanks much for your efforts !!!!

Re: Live from the Spokane LODRS

Re: Live from the Spokane LODRS
 

Thank you Larry, I did my level best to do our hometown of Great Falls, MT proud with the nostalgia Buick stocker but went red 2nd round - this car is a little different creature than my slower C/SA combination and I am still getting used to the thing. Great news is that uncle Stew Rose was helping me all week-end and he finally got to see his old silver Buick be one of the fast cars at a national event. He had a shot back in 1975 at the winter nationals when he ran the car in Superstock, but lit the tires up on the hit and that was it!

Take Care,

Paul "Jody" Plummer

Re: Live from the Spokane LODRS
 

Jody, keep up the pics and videos. We appreciate them.

Re: Live from the Spokane LODRS
 

They had a lot of downtime today because of water seeping up through the crack where the concrete meets the asphalt while Super Comp was running. They are running them pretty hot and heavy now. The weather looks pretty good. I think they might be hard pressed to get everything done today, but you never know.

Just to let everybody know, I wasn't fishing for compliments. It was just kind of disheartening to see most of my videos from Bakersfield were only getting about 30 views. I know I couldn't upload them from the track because of the poor service, but I took the extra time to add subtitles and make them 720p when I got home. I know my videos weren't getting all that many hits as it was, but 30 seemed a bit low. I will continue to upload videos and we'll see how it goes. Thanks a again for all the nice comments.

Here's Super Stock Q2:

Re: Live from the Spokane LODRS
 

Thanks again, Toby, for what you do. Its a good showcase of Spokane, to see how close they built the grandstands to the track when the place was constructed in the '70s. Its like racing down in a pit, and the way the sound echos up out of the concrete is deffinately unique,, a different experience from the usual,spread out, modern tracks that are so wide you can't make out whos sitting across from you, especially if you're looking for someone.
Great videos,,please keep us junkies "fixed". Take care.

Re: Live from the Spokane LODRS
 

Well, they got it all finished tonight. I was up in the stands shooting video pretty much all day. I will start uploading Stock now from the second round on.

Re: Live from the Spokane LODRS
 

I know most of you don't care, but some of you might. I posted Super Street and Super Gas to the Spokane playlist. I might be posting Super Comp also.

Thanks again everybody.
