Density altitude was 1836' by our guages. In A/SA Roper beat Randy Here. Also in B/sa they are showing Temento beat Pouricau. It was actually Terry Emmons. They just called Stock back up for Round 2.
More Later.

Jim,
How did you have to run a Q/ car for class? I know that nhra sometimes has a brain Fart, but that match-up needs a WHOLE ROLL.

Bob Miller · 04-04-2008, 08:47 PM

Mr. Hill, If you would please congratulate Austin Ford & David Buckner on class wins. Tell them I was there in spirit for them. Go get em boys.

The Fords and Buckners are parked right across from us, so we will congratulate them for you in the morning.
Just got back from a great meal of shrimp and crawfish at Landry's in Pierre Part.
Really good.

They postponed the crawfish boil til tomorrow. Suppose to get bad weather tonight, but hope it bypasses us. Just in case, we already have the awning in.

We get a time trial tomorrow before the cic race.

More tomorrow.

Alan,
We were both on a single, they just ran us together. That car FLYS! He set the Q record and was invited to the barn where he passed with flying colors! George is a good fella and he lurks on here to. I took it easy. the engine is weak. Gotta save it. Jim

We got lots of rain and wind last night, but nothing damaging. This morning it is still very cloudy, but not raining. They are still drying the track. The big King of the Bayou race starts out for the super categories. Stock and superstock will get a time trial around noon that does not count for qualifying, then the cic race starts. Then the hemi shootout. Should be a fun day. Then the crawfish boil.

Roussell and Duzac were invited to the barn for teardown yesterday. Jim says that the truck passed and I assume Duzac did, too since I haven't heard anything to the contrary.

Does anybody know what time the NCAA basketball tournament comes on today? I haven't seen a newspaper in a while. I guess we will be cheering for Memphis since all the Kentucky teams are gone.

More later.

Patsy, Memphis-UCLA is at 5:00 this evening. Good luck and stay dry.

Larry Hill · 04-05-2008, 11:17 AM

The " tough luck " award in yesterday's eliminations goes to Gary Emmons in C/SA. In the 3rd round he was racing Jeff Adkinson's 69 Camaro. Gary tree-d Jeff and he was ahead at the 1000' when evidently an unforeseen attack of "restless leg syndrome" hit him and he just left off the gas and hit the brake allowing Jeff to advance to the final round. There is talk in the pits about setting up a general medical fund funded by donations so he and other known victims of this disease can be helped.
I know that was a tough loss for you Gary. Better luck next time and we all wish you a "Speedy" recovery.

I guess with all the starting line antics that Gary uses (even in qualifying), he actually out-smarted himself. You gotta watch karma...it always gets you in the end.
