Kenny, I sent you an internal memo..Kinda know why I hadn't heard back.

Thanks for the reports.

And then the Sun came out .......And it became hot / humid and slow .Stock just got their first hit and I doubt anyone was in the record lanes .......but you never know ! !

And would you believe our own Stock/SuperStock Ford magazine editor is in the house ? Evan Smith , former New Jersey resident stopped up from Florida to visit his in-laws and got himself a job this weekend driving one of Anthony Bongiovannis' CobraJets .Welcome back Evan ........

Even though the weather won't let us go fast the track is in excellant condition this morning as I didn't hear one complaint yet ..........The Atco staff combined with the NHRA crew got this place hummin'.

Stock is done with their first qualifying run and Super Stock has just been called to the lanes. Weather for those who are interested is as follow.

Temp 84
Humd 46%
bar 29.81
da 2500

I took a few shots in tech this morning, lots of cars but the D1 crew did a great job handling it and we started on time.

I have some in car video's and more pics.... be back later.
