Live from Bradenton

Got to the track around 12 yesterday, rained most of the day. We're pitted with good friends Billy Crenshaw and James Noel and crews. Went through tech this morning and hope to be making runs shortly. Weather is cool (for here) 53* and overcast should clear up later in the day.

Are they starting with the unleashed first out every day ?

Robbie Welch · 02-11-2011, 06:46 PM

Bob, I think thats how it will go. Today it was12.0,11.0,10.0, S/St, ST,S/G,S/S,S/C. Pretty good car counts not sure of the numbers though. Its been cold here (I know wah,wah) 55* and wind blowing 10-15 mhp (tail wind). Car was fast first run 10.82 made a correction and still went 10.83.

Robbie, keep up the good work on the pics and I don't want to even hear about the cold weather............lol
My car always goes faster with a 15 mph tail wind. Good luck this weekend !

Dave the DA yesterday started out at sea level 2ft. The highest I saw was a little over 300ft but we had a10 mph tail wind. It was fast out there yesterday, made my best guess and went 10.82 put 8 numbers in the stop and went 10.83. It should of gone 10.86 or 87. I have'nt raced NHRA in a while, seems like theres a big difference in the tree. Bob and Keith thanks, I've got to get on the tree, hope to get two shoots today.
