Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Wow. Its been a while. Last race in Fontana in May. Hopefully I can remember how to drive my car! Arrived today and low and behold they pitted us. Great hospitality and service. We are pitted in the oval are are the only pair there as of now. I plan on testing and tuning mine as I did a bunch of changes. New axles and spool, re-valved front shocks and new front springs. Plus put in a racepak with a clutch sensor and a fresh clutch. Hot here today. 90. Weather forecast not looking good for this race but we just make the best of it.

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Parking day. And cleaning the dust from the cars! Going to be a hot one today. 92. They've started parking. Should be a relaxing day.

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Test and tune day.Starts at 2 local time. Present conditions 75.7T 33.1H 25.67BP 6476 DA. 10-15 MPH cross wind. Fast it will not be.

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS

Great pics Bob! Thanks!

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Thanks for the great pictures!

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Thanks for the pics Bob, and all the best to you two and everyone else who shows up there! I wish I could've been there, but a tranny issue with my truck and a family funeral this past June, drained enough of my funds (and time off from work), to hinder my ability to attend this years race. Next year though, and see ya in 'Vegas 6wks from now!

You've got that right! Bob, please give BJ a big hug for me, would you? Billy

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Will do Billy

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Thanks for the pics Bob, the 1962 Pontiac Catilina is awesome one of my favorite cars.
Good Luck with both cars.

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

I will try to get an under the hood shot today..You don't want to miss that.

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Thanks Mark, the car looks really nice

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Believe it or not I think we're going to get the first qualifying session in. Cloudy but the sun is peaking thru. Present conditions 58.7T 75.9H 25.52BP 5732DA.

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Good luck to all and thanks to Bob for all the pictures, so far.

I think that the 62 Pontiac is a very cool car. There are pictures of both the car and under the hood from Mike Delahanty at the Earlville Div. 5 race.

I have been wondering how B.J. was doing. Good to see her at this race. Is the cancer under control at this time?

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Racing done for the day. The skys opened up. 2 rounds of qualifying done.

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Second, Stock

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Glad to see there is a great turnout of Stock and Super Stock entries up there! All the best to all of you racing this weekend, and it seems like tomorrows weather should be good enough to get the first race in easily, and hopefully the second!

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Sitting it the motorhome with the furnace going. Things not looking good for today. 100% rain predicted and its black clouds all around. Saturday and Sunday looks OK. See what happens.

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Might be a little better pic..Got plenty of time to mess with it.

The only good news at the moment is, you should see some scenic pics of snow on the mountains tomorrow.

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Last May we took a trip and stoped in our 28 state to be at a track.

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

You know that really looks like a nice track. Is it hard to get to?

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

No it was e-z to find , right off 80. About 15 miles west of Salt Lake.city

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Bummer Bob, and so much for my comment on the weather there. However I may be glad I didn't come up there this year now????

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

What a nice car !!!!

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

How about this, brother Danny..Three tone GP interior!

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Mark----Absolutely beautiful !! ---------- But I have to be careful here I don't want to offend Bob's red Grand Prix or it might not want to come home with me after I pry it out of his gorilla grip fingers. Hey--the white LeMans that turned red made it to my back yard again so who knows. :)

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Don't let it gather too much dust!


Only thing this Cat needs now, is a 4 speed!

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Ha---You're reading my mind again. And I have all the parts :)

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

I'd be all over that thing!

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Bob & Mark, I didn't realize you were both there yesterday, I did get to put a face
to a few face book friends like Don Kennedy.

With the rain I left for home this morning and just got home an hour ago.

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Its another day and its still raining. The good news is that its supposed to be sunny by noon or so. In the mean time its another pot of coffee brewing!

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

49 degrees, and only rain left is right over us.

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Drying the track now. Sun shining, well kind of shining, northwest of track. 2-2 1/2 hours to get track ready. Then we'll run something. No schedule yet.

Re: Live From Saltlake LODRS
 

Oops! Spoke too soon. Sprinkles are back.
