Today was one of those days that we all need but don't want to admit to -- clean , polish , adjust and just plain get ready for our first pass down the 1320 .Even the NHRA was doin' it today - the track looks great and all of their new FORD support vehicles are spiffed up and shiny awaiting tomorrow and the crowds that will view them .

Most of us got teched in today -- and again without much fanfare thank God .Unlike the old days when we got our "stuff" busted everytime we came to a national event today the new NHRA is more about making suggestions about how we can be safer and welcoming us to have a good and safe race .The economy has changed us all for sure...............took a few pics along the way today .

Tidbits- Spoke with Joey Wilkes today - he won't run the GTO at this event- but he will drive the Challenger that Irv Johns owns in A/SA .
