Live from Reading, Pennsylvania - NHRA Keystone Nationals

[Jack Matyas]

Good morning - A beautiful morning here in Pennsylvania - sunshine , blue shies for a change with temps in the high 50's .Bad news is that after a tuff loss last night I bagged it and am now 60 miles from the track and won't see final eliminations today .

Hopefully someone at the track can post and keep us filled in on the action ....its been nice but I must tell you - way too long and I certainly earned the Christmas bonus this past week ! ! ! !

PS- heads-up between Russ Linke and 'lil Joe Santangelo in C/SA should be a barn burner in the early morning Maple Grove go fast air .

Good morning Jack. Sorry about that loss yesterday. Do you (ot anyone else) know if the Sportsman finals will be on audio cast this morning?

See you at the Dutch?

Jim,
A BIG Thank you for those reports. There'd be a lot of folks feeling incredibly frustrated if you didn't. Myself included.
Again Thanks.

Anyone know why Don Fezell was a no show for Round 2 of Stock?

[modelman1960]

Another tough race for Ally Smyth in the 4th rd. against Jim Boudreau.
He definitely has the combo down. Ally gave it all I'm sure, especially with the .003 light. I wish Team Portatree all the best and that she can maintain the lead in Stock for Division 1.

Thanks for your reports Jim

Congrats to all the finalists.

All in all, considering the overall outlook weather wise a few days back, it really was the best compromise . They were done by noon on Monday , not a bad outcome in a bad Mother Nature situation.

All the racers did a great job today of getting back to the lanes quickly after each round. There was minimal delay between rounds.
