Live from Epping,New Hampshire-NHRA Lucas Oil Series

[Jack Matyas]

Good morning members and guests - welcome to day one of our 2020 season here in D1 and you can bet on one thing - nothing has changed as Mother Nature has followed me around forever and won't disappoint us once again .I'm somewhere in Connecticut and as they say in some areas of PA 'its makin' down' .

And that's not the worst of it - last night while in some tiny burg I was motoring down a two lane highway and all of a sudden going around a bend there is a bridge in front of me but its a half-moon brick style and I've got nowhere to go because of traffic.Well anything that was on my roof is now gone along with my electric awning and God knows what else .

Great way to start my season - hopefully things will get better ……..

Good to have a live reporter there. Between you, DRC and D1TV we’re grateful to have such great coverage.

So Mother Nature changed her mind just past Hartford - Sun is out - sky is brite and not many clouds ……...

What a stinker today - hot , sticky and the only good thing is the 29.99 barometer . So far we've had two shots in Stock and one in S/S .So Bobby Vogel is showing 'em how its done with his new ride and as for S/S I'm not sure if Jeff Roell is in the right class .If not then Scotty Gove is on top.Believe me if you can go a second under here Indy will be a breeze. More later ……..



Just for the record I didn't take any of these photos .
