Live from Maple Grove - Super Chevy - Stock - S/S Combo

[Jack Matyas]

We're out on the track in less than an hour - don't know the exact car count yet but its around thirty - total here on the ground is around 550 .I'll let you know how the first round of timetrials goes for us ............

[Jack Matyas]

We just got our first of two time shots today in front of a huge Super Chevy crowd .........and like they say the crowd went wild .Well , maybe not wild but they sure liked us .I was in the first pair and came around to take some pictures and was amazed the stands were still full- they stayed around to watch us ........next in about two hours we'll go out again .

Just had our second and last time shot - we get to sit until 1pm tomorrow when we will have first round in front of a packed house hopefully -- one could get used to being treated like royality .......next week at the Lucas Oil race things will get back to normal .

Just wanted to Thank Dave Ley and Lex for putting on a great Stock Super Stock race for us Div 1 guys.

In the almost forgot department - today is Jeff Tripps' birthday -- I think he 's maybe 52 or three - doesn't matter - some of us got together to celebrate his big day - we had a huge ice cream cake - it was terrific ..........I wonder if the fact that Jeff had on a Dairy Queen t-shirt had anything to do with that great cake ? Anyway Happy Birthday Jeff ............

PS- Wait till you see the size of my piece .

Looks like you guys are having great fun one more time!

In an hour or so we'll be going out for our first round and most of us are chomping at the bit .

Took a ride over to the car show area and bumped into last years Indy winner Tim Bishop - he's in the house showing his drop dead brand new '97 Camaro SS LT4 - he says he'll be back on the trail soon as he's waiting on his motor from Bub .Today he'll win something for sure with his Camaro ........

Police presence here is the most I've ever seen - and walking their beat - no cruiser stuff - not sure if its a good thing or bad .

Thanks go out to the folks at General Motors / Chevrolet Division for the great goodie bag .

The truck shown is from Jenkins Competition......
