Good morning all - Whew !!! Like everyone else I'm glad yesterday is behind us as it was a scorcher for sure .I swear the diesel generators that were working overtime to keep us cool yesterday were louder than the race car engines- and it went on into the night hours - the humidity was high even as the temps dropped last evening .Today there will be less of that and is expected to be at least five degrees cooler - anything will help .

Today everyone will get one more shot at the New England 1320 before we start eliminations this afternoon and unlike other Lucas Oil races here in the Northeast we will race two rounds today in front of the Night of Fire crowd that will file into the stands .

Less ballast today needed ?? You bet after a second night of lobster - GAS Racings' Tom Goldman and Kathy Purcell hosted their annual Lobster Fest last evening and if you went away hungry it was your own fault - and the local freshly caught lobsters did their part in making the deal a success . Thanks Tom and Kathy......

Lastly - pictured below is todays schedule that I'm told is written in stone and will not change .
