Morning everyone, as you can see by the photo's the sun has not come out yet. They have been drying the track for the last hour, and it looks to be in good shape.

I don't see any reason why we should not be able to start on time today. The local weather is calling for a sunny day with a high of 80. The weekend also looks good.

As I type this, the sun is trying to come out. After my first round of qualifying, I will be back with pictures and hopefully something more interesting then a weather report.

Thanks for thinking of us super class guys Ken.

My pleasure Don. They called stock back to the lanes so I did not have time for pictures, but I will later. I talked to a few super class guys and they said the track is great. Its a little on the humid side, and its partly cloudy..... temp is 80.

So far the day is going smooth with no oil downs or issues..... be back later.

Super Gas is in running now. I was talking to the drivers, and there telling me the track conditions are great.

I also ran into John Asta and Mike Sawyer. They had a bet on the Flyers and the Bruins in the playoffs. Well Mike wanted to let everyone know he paid John his $100, although it was paid with nickels, now that's funny.

I tried to get some shots from the stands, but my camera is junk. Check out Scotty Albercht's Corvette. I know most have seen pictures of Scotty's car, but check out the tail light shadows that are painted in the bumper. I heard the car is for sale, man I wish I had the money, this is one bad *** car.

As I type this it started to sprinkle, I think we are going to be done for the day. Super Gas is done and Super Comp was in the lanes, about half ran before the rain.
