"Live" from Galot LODRS 2-5

HR9121 · 08-06-2021, 09:13 AM

Good morning from day 1 at Galot. Today we have qualifying for the LODRS event which is the 5th division 2 event of the year. Tomorrow is eliminations and Sunday will be the Open race. There is a good chance of weather for tomorrow and the place looks full so hopefully we can get it all in.
Super Street has been called to the lanes so it's time to get it cranked up.

Dam James, you beat me to it...

This is the first time for me at GALOT Motorsport Park. What a great facility, this place has to be one the the nicest tracks I have ever been to. I have never ran the 1/8 before so this should be interesting.

Here are a few photos from the pits... be back later.

I personally don’t care for the 1/8th mile stuff that much. As I stare at the tach to make the 2-3 shift, I’m at the finish line. Makes it tough to judge.
But, have fun to all that are there and good luck!

Brett the hillbilly half tracking ain't that bad but definitely prefer to run full track. I can live with it once a year especially at a facility as nice as this one and it's a hour and half commute here for me.
We are currently in a sprinkle delay, we were about to start round 2 of qualifying when it started spitting a little. Still don't have sheets out for 1st run.....

For those who didn't know, this race is on NHRA.TV/Sportsman. Just checked.

We are into the 3 rd of qualifying, there are about 60 Stockers and 60 Super Stockers... no qualifying sheet up yet do to class confusion. They have to edit in each car to get the correct index and class. As soon as they finish I will post.

Stock actions shots...

Next batch... I will have Super Stock up later.

Ken Miele · 08-06-2021, 06:20 PM

Qualifying sheets... Stk and SS....

Thanks Ken for the photos. Great starting lines shots from the bleachers. Wish I could have been there too. Damn back. Appreciate you coming down south this late in the season.
