"Live" from the ASRA Shootout and race #6

Dave Casey · 10-09-2011, 08:17 AM

Good Morning, and it is a crystal clear one here at the "Valley", Currently the temp is a brisk 46 degrees and the baro is 29.7 .

Got the early morning report that Wayne and his track crew were scraping the track till 9 pm last night and are already out there grooming the surface this morning

Tim Boudreau did a "double" yesterday, as he lost early at Maple Grove,trucked right up here to Lebanon and got in 2 time trials before the end of the day. That's the racer spirit Tim . I noticed he had a 10.28 dial from the grove, and he went 10.35 here, nice wheels up leave too.

A lot of great bench racing and laughs last night all around the pit area, Large fire and cookout at the Markow/LaBrecque site, Celebrated Marc's win and it was also Al and Shirley Mark's 24 th anniversary. Also visited with Dan Lynch, Gene Monahan, George Mirza and the Stickles clan. Dan and Gene drove up from Maple Grove too. There many racers already here, my guess is we will have 60 plus for todays ASRA stock/super stock combo

We have just completed 1st rd, and we have a great field of 63 cars. Yesterdays SS champ at reading Joe Santangelo made the trip and won 1st rd. We had our best 50/50 raffle ever thanks to the sales skills of Joanne LaBrecque and Shirley Mark.

#1 qualifier was Jim Penta with a perfect .000 light in time trials.

I managed a 1st rd runner up to Al Mark, but I will be staying a little while longer and try to post more results.

29.53 baro and an unusual 80 degrees, for october , usual Lebanon headwind, off and on light breeze
