Live from Bowling Green, Division 3 points race!

[Larry Hill]

We are finally here. We arrived about 6:30, so we did not get to test n tune. My husband moves in slow motion when it gets time to leave. But here we are finally. We are parked at the end of the race track just about as far as you can get. But we are parked to where the truck can be pulled out if it rains too much. There are lots and lots of cars here.

I don't know how many tested today, but George Widuch who races with Jerry Bennett, said that it was only about a 10 min. wait to run each time.

I did see Kallas's trailer as we came back to our motorhome.

Thanks to Quick Fuel for providing a bar b q dinner tonight for everyone. We got there late and only got corn and baked beans, but they were very good. They said they thought they had fed somewhere around 375 people.

I will give you updates tomorrow after I see who all is here.

It's been a long day, so nite-nite.

i just talked to my dad, and he also said Irvin Johns went 10.13 at 131 in B/SA. That's ridiculous, especially at 3500'.

Wow that is flyin... Larry atleast he's running in B trim so you don't have to worry about him heads up.

If it's like any other race with test and tunes, they'll be at least a tenth slower (or more) tomorrow.

Why is that???

[Mike Carr]

I don't know about other Divisions, but in Div 1 at the Opens and Divisional races, it seems everyone flies and runs sub-record runs on Test and Tune day. But come Friday in qualifying, they all seem to be slower. I don't think it's the weather all the time. Either they're not at legal weight, they're afraid of going too fast and getting HP, or both. Just seems interesting to me. It's been that way for years in other classes too. When Pro Stock has their Superbowl Showdown in Houston in January, they'd fly. Come G-Ville or Houston Nat'l event time in similar air, they'd be quite slower. Makes you wonder sometimes.

Well, Jack Matyas must have pulled in overnight, because it is raining here this morning! I was hoping Jack would keep all the rain with him at Cecil County!

Tech has been open for about a half hour. Larry has been down and got teched. Racing is supposed to start at 9 with Super Street. It is only sprinkling, but hopefully it will quit soon. We are supposed to get 2 runs today and then they going to finish up the Sportsnationals that was rained out in May.

There are really lots of folks here. I will go out exploring after Larry gets back with my golf cart.

I think the rumor is true about Irvin Johns 10.13 run in B. But from what I heard last night, he is going to run A/SA.

More later after it stops raining so I can get out.

Well Jack... If you're here in Bowling Green, this rain is all your fault. If you're not, then where's "Live From Cecil County??? Inquiring minds (sometimes small)want to know.
