Just a quick note, after the first qualifying I thought is was slower then the gators. I can not explain it, but its about the same for some and maybe a little faster. The air does not show it, but its a fast 1500 feet here.

Just ran second qualifying, most slowed up about 4.


Have to get ready for class, be back later.

First round of class for stock is done. I had to run Grace Howell. I ask Grace if we could run each other first, there was 4 AA cars. I wanted to get it out of the way. Grace said okay and off we went. To add insult to injury Grace strap an .012 on me to my .049. Grace went 9.706 to my 9.808. I was hoping to run a mid 70, but that's all I had. Grace went 129, she killed about 9 mph. I'm figuring she was on a 9.65 run.

Well so goes my class race, time to get ready for the eliminator. I wish I could give you more info, but running class keeps you busy. Since I am out I will watch the second round of class. They should be out soon.

There was some sprinkles and we were on hold, but we are back to racing. Stock should be out soon.

I believe that makes you a "Grace-ful" runner-up Ken!

Nice to have met some of the sportsman racers of which I have taken pictures. I got a few email addresses to send them some from this week-end. I will be in and about the sportsman pits tomorrow. I will be wearing a Go to Hell hat with an NHRA logo on the front and carrying a blue back pack if anyone else would like pictures. Have a good nite.
