Well, this is a 1st. The racing is shut down right now because of the sun shining on the tree. They have called us up.

More later

The class guide says LS-1 354 HP effective June 15 2010 so it is more than a rumor!

I noticed it last night on the qualifying show... I could not see anything after both stage bulbs were lit... Wondered how drivers were getting any reaction times... Guess their angle was different.... Or they had a very good pair of sunglasses.......

Regarding the sun on the tree; they promised years ago to turn the track in the opposite direction but all the changes have been slow coming; you can expect the same kind of deal today....and hope you have that trouble in the finals after prevaling in another heads up in round 4! You've got lots of folks hanging on live timing/audiocast and ready to jump in the air with you. Go Larry and Patsy!!!!

It was nice talking with you on Friday and I'll be sure to swing by your shop when I go thru Ky and say hello to Chris. Dem dar's my ole stomping grounds and it will be fun to race with you at Bowling Green next month.

As for the sun at in the early evening at Seattle, just look at the second round of super stock. Five of six races were red lights.

Yesterday was full of highs and lows. We finally got the car to run better. Won a double red lite race. Got by Lambeck in a heads up race. Was dead late and won on a break out. We are going to hear the National Anthem on Sunday. Had a push rod jump off the ball of the adjuster. Went dead on with "0" and the Perfectly Strange money had already been won in the first round. I have Kevin Cour and his super charged '10 Mustang in round four heads up. But the most disturbing event of the day has to be the cam going flat in the nitro burning blender.
