live from Cecil County-NHRA Lucas Oil Series

Jack Matyas · 08-16-2012, 07:48 PM

Its going to be another hard weekend as the boss is going to be out testing someplace else and left me to do the legwork again .I understand now that he is a team driver and all but one of these days he's going to miss me .Enough of that stuff .......

First off there was testing today - not much to speak of I'm told ( yes , I wasn't in attendance again today ) -- oh yeah , one of those pesky new white cars was there today - it was the ATI COPO car with Marty Reinhardt at the helm - in SuperStock trim -on his second pass went 8.92 @ 157 fresh out of Ken Keirs shop I'm told .He ditched the 9 inchers for a set of 10 and a halves and hooked ok .

Not much else to speak of except that there are rumors there will be a "Billy" sighting this weekend along with one of his famous "dime rockets" on the grounds .

On the weather front it looks terrific for the next few days - geez , I know now that will backfire on me .......let the hazing begin ......later.
