Re: "Live" from the 2012 US Nationals in Indy!
Thank you to everyone posting pictures, videos, reports and insights on the activities there. Someday I will get to see it for myself. Much appreciated.

They just announced that stock will run Round # 1 at10:00 tomorrow instead of Saturday. They have a few cars in teardown now. I will go down and get some pics.

Re: "Live" from the 2012 US Nationals in Indy!
By the time I heard about teardown and went down there, there were only 2 cars left. Pendarvis and Cour. Everyone passed. I heard that Beach and Fisher had been there also. Checking carbs, and had to take off valve covers for a look. Also heard driveshafts were checked. More if I hear any more details.

Re: "Live" from the 2012 US Nationals in Indy!
Thanks Patsy for all that you do
NHRA is obviously scrambling to get as much done as possible with the weather approaching. I am sure that is why they have an abrieviated teardown. Smart move in my mind. Get some rounds in, many travel a long way to this event and 1 less TT and less teardown would be ok with me with this weather situation. Good Luck to all

Re: "Live" from the 2012 US Nationals in Indy!
It does make sense to try to get as much racing in as possible before the rain comes, but I just hope it doesn't set a precedent for the future. Indy is already about the only place teardowns happen except for records anymore.
