"Live" from the 2012 US Nationals in Indy!

[Larry Hill]

Hey thanks, Dennis! Those brandy slushes were really good!

Tim, come on by and introduce yourself!

Karen, it would be nice to share a glass of wine with you! In proper stemware, of course.

A few notes from here--They have started filling up the back lot before it got dark. They are up to probably #130 or more. I didn't walk around the fence to see just what # they were at. Stock entries are now down to 167 and will probably be falling more. Jeff Teuton's son Joseph is staying home with his wife and family because of the hurricane that is due to arrive Tues or Wed. Also John Duzac has pulled out of line and headed home this evening. Jeff's cars are going to be driven by Larry Stewart in Stock and Jeff Strickland in super stock. I believe the Hebert's are watching the weather pretty closely, too. I was talking to Rock Haas earlier and he said Don Fezell messed up his car a little at Milan this weekend. I don't know if it has knocked him out or not. Also Drew Skillman's car blew an engine at Milan while being driven by his dad, Bill.

The local Indy parking crew has been friendlier and nicer than I can ever remember in the past!

Well more later. It is dark now and most everyone is back in their motorhomes for the evening.

Hey Stephen, you can just pay us back with some of those good Louisiana pralines!!

Its wet. Enjoying Bob & Tom on the radio. I just hope we don't need a tow truck to get parked, but they need the rain.

[Terry Cain]

Wow, I'm surprised you got ran. We didn't get a drop here.
Jack, Got something for ya. I'll be up Thursday morning.

[Larry Hill]

It is 8:30 now and we are supposed to begin parking at 9, but it is still raining. I think they will wait til it stops and let it soak in a bit. It didn't start raining til around 6 and it has rained pretty hard off and on. I will let you know when it stops and I get outside.

Like Patsy said, WET!. Rolled in yesterday about 4pm from Milan. The weather is supposed to break late morning, but it does not look good right now. Its raining lightly as I type.

They were supposed to start parking us early, but the rain has obviously put that on hold. Either me or Patsy will have more info as the day progresses.

Ken, I looked through the T shirt sticky without success so figured I'd just ask here...will you have ClassRacer shirts available at your trailer?

Hey guys they aren't parking or letting anyone else in the track. They told us to go find a car lot or shopping center to park in. I guess if you guys could post when they start parking you guys so all of us know when to head down that way we are scattered all across town lol thanks

[Larry Hill]

It has stopped raining, but nobody is moving yet. Nothing official yet, but rumors are they are not moving anything until at least noon. NHRA is not even over here handing out credentials yet. I will let you know when we hear something official.

Larry, George and I just arrived home. Even though the storm is still a day or two away from landfall, things are crazy around here, Gas stations are running out of gas. Other gas stations are raising their prices. What made me decide to come home was when my 90 year old dad called me and said he was going to drive to Houston! Thats not going to happen. Vicki picked him up this morning and when I arrived home he was watching TV in my livingroom. All's well that ends well. George's wife was pretty concerned as well.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone in Stock Eliminator Good Luck. I sure wish I could be there to see the Factory Shoot-out and Stock Class Eliminations.
