At this moment we are on temporary hold and have been for more than an hour to scrape the track as the SuperComp cars were spinning when they came off the throttle stops . When we resume they will finish then SuperStock .75 entries made the call for the first Stock pass .Now that you guys and gals who are at work today reading this and are now updated get yourselves back working -- NOW !!!! before the boss catches you .

Thanks for the reports Jack.

For the late arrivers......Is there any idea how late they will run today (cutoff at 5 or 6pm)?

Any idea what time tech closes today?


Also, is alcohol dragster and fc there this weekend?

I know Atco has a late curfew on Friday night, I think either 11 or 11:30 cause they normally have street night there on Fridays and it's a ZOOOO!!!! Tom yes TA/FC and TA/D are there but not T/S and T/D.

Update 2:20 pm -- Still scraping -- officials are hard at work trying to get the track in shape .Others as pictures will tell are just taking it easy - and yet even others are caught with their mouths open -- its just one of those days ........click on to enlarge .

Yo Jack , I didn't know you retired ? Did you just go to Atco after Englishtown or did you breeze by the dealership and check in ? Could I get an order of your fried chicken with a side a mushrooms and zuccini to go please .

Jack, Go tell Buck to wake up! He has a grill that needs tending!

[Jack Matyas]

Unbelieveable but true -- the Sun is out -- S/C and S/S got their runs in and S/G is on the track as I type....looks as if we're going to get a second run in tonight.....depends on how the alcohol cars do .

This afternoon Tim Bishop showed up with his F-Bomb B/S Firehawk -- nice piece -- he hasn't been seen much lately . Also pictured during S/S is Johnny D ( in red shirt ) up on a perch taking shots in the bleach box .....
Even though it was a four hour delay Joe Sways guys and the NHRA crew scraped from the burnout to the 660' mark --no easy feat for sure ..and boy oh boy did the track have 'teeth' when they were done.....

Almost forgot -- two records set the first leg -- SS/CA -- Oakes -- 9.02 P/S Cokinos 12.36 .
Pudgie -- I'll put your food order in -- wait at your garage door --might be awhile .And I hope you enjoy the last picture in the group . Ya' shoulda' came .........Also pictured is 'Uncle Buck' -- this time awake and preparing one of his masterpieces and finally we see Bucky Hess multi-tasking........wonder who he is talking with ?

Anyone know what actual weight Brian was running the camaro at? Is he running at 3502 lbs with the 427 476hp alum head combo?
