LIVE from St. Louis NHRA Div 3 LODRS

Schmancy! Got started on my first trip to Gateway Motorsports Park at 4am, chunked a trailer tire in the pouring rain somewhere west of Terre Haute, and got here late, and wound up with a great pit spot complete with speakers, oil dump station, portojohns, and a fence to tie the ez-up to, all just two rows away from the staging lanes and the M/T and VP trailers. Only missed one session. Got teched in, cleaned the car up a little aaannnd... Sprinkles. Super humid, but not overbearingly hot. Overcast with a crosswind. 85.8deg, 66%, 29.41 for 3152' DA and a soggy .81 vapor pressure. It's not doing much, so we should be back to live action shortly. Stock and Super Gas are through with Q2, with Top Dragster on deck.

I hope you brought ear plugs or they turned off/ repaired those speakers. They have been messed up all year and are louder than a fuel car explosion on one side and dont work on the other. Sorry about the bad news Good luck this weekend.

At least you will not miss your call to the lanes, and if mother nature calls your close! You may be completely deaf by the end of the weekend, you got any ear muffs?

I'm half deaf anyway (ask my wife) so the speakers are just right. ;-)

Got through with Super Stock's second session, but sprinkles returned midway through Super Comp. Qualifying sheets shown are after Q2 Stock, Q1 SS.

Will some one photo shop Mike's car so it will have the speakers on top if it like the Blues Brothers car.

Good luck to all!
