"Live" from the Mooresville National Open

HR9121 · 04-16-2021, 10:16 PM

Hello boys and girls, it's my first NHRA race of the year and an opportunity to pick up two valuable grade points. I must admit that's what attracted me the most to this race this weekend was the grade points.
I haven't been here to Mooresville in probably 10 or 11 years and the place looks great. We arrived a short while ago and there's appears to be quite a few cars here with rigs pulled up in every nook and cranny.
I believe the schedule gives us two Q runs tomorrow followed by eliminations and do it all over again on Sunday. First round for Stock and SS is random draw with no heads up runs then it's on a ladder from then on.
On another note I would like to thank Emily and Mike Volkman, they are adding $200 to the winner's purse for Stock and SS. Their business Service Department Solutions has been a great sponsor and friend to the sportsman racer here in D2!
Supposed to be quite chilly tonight with a slight chance of rain. I'll have more information in the morning.

Please post q1 sheets for stock and super stock

HR9121 · 04-17-2021, 12:06 PM

I've been trying to find a sheet but so far no luck. As soon as I get one I will post it. It's moving rather quickly so far and we just finished our 2cd hit. 1st round will probably be around 2 so hopefully I can get a sheet.

James,
Might not find one as it is random pairing. That happened last year at SGMP for the Sunday race. No sheets posted.

Good luck this weekend.

Brian you may be right, still no sheets.....

HR9121 · 04-17-2021, 04:27 PM

I have yet to see a Q sheet but I do have a ladder that I will post shortly.

James,
Do you have an estimated car count for S/SS?
Thanks,

Butch I believe it was in the mid 30's both classes. Sorry no reports today but it's been moving so quickly. Right now it's Jim Marshall, Roy Caraway and myself left in Stock. Jim has the bye.
