Default LIVE from Dunn-Benson IHRA Div 9 Pro-Am

Beautiful day here at Dunn-Benson Dragstrip in Benson, NC. Sunny and a cool dowbtrack breeze, helping to dry the grounds. 61F, 36%, 29.95, 252' DA making for fun times! :-) 28 Stocker and 32 Super Stockers made the first lap

It's warming up quickly -- 65.4F, 31%, 29.93, 562' DA following Super Stock's second sessions. Four or five Stockers were directed to the tech trailer today, spot checking part numbers and such, which was good to see. No problems there that I've heard. Think they looked at Taylor, Truell, Warren, and a couple others.

In important news, there's an ice cream trailer here offering a hot fudge chocolate cake Sunday. I slowed .03... you figure it out. :-)

Missy Phillips' fresh paintjob on her Nova, done by her son Cody, looks ohenomenal. It's one of those 'pictures doesn't do it justice' jobs, but I'll try to get some closeups later.

Larry Trogdon ran a career best this morning for the provisional pole. Don't know yet if Randy Daniels was able to knock him off in the second session. Larry had a bunch of suspension work done, and it's just smooth, fast, and controlled now. His is another Cody Phillips paintjob.

Combo race tonight, and Pro-Am eliminations at noon tomorrow.

This midnight report is brought to you Tim Sloan, Lee Truell, Scotty Galyean, Robbie & Tabitha Draughon, Jeff and Mike Longhany, Brandon Peterson, and anyone else who had a hand in getting the Duck Tape Volare race-ready again. Bizarre break... felt like a rear when it let go off the line, yet I drove it back! Had all gears, but when in neutral, felt about locked up. Autopsy in the coming weeks.

Congrats to #3 in the World Brandon Peterson for his S/SS Combo win over CCRA Champ Jeff Longhany! Tonight's weather was nippy and mostly dark.

Eliminations at Noon tomorrow.
