It was a pretty decent day at Mission today, I rolled in around 10.30am, no rain at all since about 6.00 am this morning, although the Test & Tune didn`t get started until 1.30-2.00PM.I saw a few cars make 6 or 7 passes today. At least 3 new Stockers in the pits, Mike Bookers Drag Pack Challenger, Grant Eldridges D/SA 68 Camaro, and although it isn`t finishd yet, Tom Nolans new 64 Thunderbolt was there, fresh out of the chassis shop. Lots of room in the pits for more cars, the test & tune was cut short around 6.30PM, when a Comp door car (AA/AT 56-57 Corvette) hit both guard rails hard, broke both front struts/wheels off, and moved at least 2 of the 3800 lb concrete blocks noticably.Sat & Sunday are looking pretty weatherwise, and if Friday is as "crappy" as the forecast called for today, we should be fine,
