See they moved the pros to the middle of the day. T-storms in afternoon must have scared Glendora. So sportsman will have to suffer if it rains. Sucks.

They've posted the detailed schedule now...
http://www.nhra.net/2014/images/NHRA...cheduleCN2.pdf ...and yes, you're right, they are trying to protect the PRO's getting their two runs on Friday in the anticipation that there will be some rain in the afternoon. Stock's class elims are very likely to fall by the way side anyway by the time they do all the countdown introductions theater. Bruton was probably worried about his gate too, pretty obvious he could give a squat about sportsman racing given the number of events he runs there every year (as in zilch). Friends, NHRA is in trouble.

I don't think it is that bad guys, the schedule shows 2 time trials and round 1 of stock class before the pro's. Then class rd 2 between the pro sessions. That ain't bad in my book

....and, as usual, Super Gas (a.k.a. Super Last) gets the shaft again on Friday.

Mother Nature gave everybody the shaft...heavy rain Thursday loosened the top-end rubber. They prepped the track this morning, hoping the rubber would hold, but it got so loose that they stopped after 2 Super Gas cars and are scraping the track. Should have an updated schedule posted on DRC shortly, but it won't be pretty.

Plan B - they are starting with Stock Class round 1 and pushed Top Alcohol to the end of the day.

Anyone see a schedule for today yet? I know they have to finish super comp second round but are they still slated for 11:00 start? On a good note, at least there will be plenty of classes to watch on espn3 today. Hopefully the camera angles show more than the wall at the starting line.

V Gaines' crash should really throw off the schedule. No traction half track down .
