Live from Richmond , VA - NHRA Lucas Oil Series

[Jack Matyas]

Both Stock and S/S got their first shot at the track this morning - not as fast as it looked but the track was killer .J.Wayne Totaro let the pack this morning with a fine -.997 under .

Air readings at that time were - 66 degrees w/ 61 % humidity , barometer 29.75, .39 Vapor Pressure - adj . alt . -- almost 1200 feet .

NOTE -- I've been told because of the bad weather rolling in tomorrow there is a strong likelyhood that there will not be any time trials in the morning -and we'l start eliminations at 9 am . New entries can still come in but will be put on the bottom of the ladder .

Preparations are being made for tomorrows elims - the crack NHRA Division One Team is doing their best for maximum bite ...............

Looks like Adam Keir has the A/SA record as he was almost finished in teardown when I went by earlier .Also Guy DeJarnes was there in teardown with his S/S .....And yes, I know I killed the spelling of his name .

Hey Chip I didn't go because of the rain and the only diaper around here is the one my little girl is wearing. Lol! I guess I need to get one for me to just haven't got around to yet. See you at the rock next week.
I'll just sit here for now and let DRC keep me posted.

TAD: 17
TAFC: 10
TD: 22
TS: 20
Comp: 28
Stock: 46
Super STk: 40

Don't have a count for SC, SG and SST but I am guessing 40 to 50 for SG and 30-40 for SG and SST. Probably a total count of 325 or so.

There may still be more tomorrow. With the exception of TAD and TAFC, newcomers will just be added to the bottom of the order.

Good morning -- Not nearly as chilly last night and this morning here in Dinwidde and todays high to be just over eighty with the rain coming late in the afternoon ( 4 to 5 pm ) .Fog is covering the trees at this moment but is expected to burn off by the 9 AM race start .

There are a few cars at the gate this morning and they'll be put on the bottom of their ladders so they may compete .

Both Adam Keir and Guy DesJardiins set records yesterday - Adam in his sharp looking 70 Nova A/SA and Guy in his 67 Camaro SS/FA .Adam went 9.89 and Guy 9.63 -congrats guys ..........
