Live from Reading, PA - NHRA Keystone Nationals - Page 8

Boster might be able to shed some light on the registration process. The count was at 91 whenever Jim Marshall and Larry both withdrew at the same time. Paul entered at that exact time. We were all on the phone at the same time. It showed him entered, then it knocked him back out the next second. I don't know if this applied to Cagnazzi or not, but someone got in. It seemed that somehow the system was set to automatically enter someone that was on an unknown list as soon as it dropped to 89.

good morning. Thank you for the great pictures and videos.
Outstanding I must add.
I love that SS/EA Chevelle. I hope if I get to go tomorrow he will let me check it out.
I sure hope they move the Factory Stock cars to a permanent Heads up Eliminator.
My 2 cents, from just a big fan of these classes of Stock n Super Stock as they are Wayyy Tooo Coool!!!!

I thought there was a rule to the effect of any Professional team owner could gain entry into a national event (Roy Johnson at Bristol a few years ago for example).

I'm calling BS on Cagnazzi....somebody going tto get slapped, where you at Mickey?

[QUOTE=BILL TAYLOR;448454]Billy, THEY are probably giving grade points based on net worth, bank balances and such, which would explain why some of us are not racing this weekend........[/QUO

You would have went ??? Come on !!

Ken Miele · 10-04-2014, 11:15 AM

The schedule for today starts with the pros around 11:30 followed by comp and stock. It could change for the sportsman but the pros will be out first.

You guys are unbelievable, when it comes to whining and bitching, class racer has to be king. There I said it..... what else can you all find to bitch about this weekend.

BTW... Victor got in on owner points, look up the NHRA rule.

Enough said on this subject start another thread.... you guys kill me!

Billy Harper · 10-04-2014, 12:05 PM

Everything has a price and I think Victor had this price covered. But you must admit he did one good job driving. Wish I could have been there to mingle with him.
