The next incident was Lou Centolanza is his 69 Barracuda, he could not slow the car down and went into the safety net. they are still working on the net and we will be down for a while. Both drivers are okay.

I will have a qualifying sheets up for Stock and Super later today.

That's a really hard hit. It had to have spun around and backed straight into the wall. I'm guessing they could back-half it and turn it into a F/SS car.

I'm not sure, the C pillar is pretty beat up but anythings possible. The first photo is Lou Centolanza's 69 Barracuda before he went into the safety net. Doug Walker sent me that photo. He will post photos from today's action later tonight. Kalyn Guenther gave me the second photo of Charlie Malo before his crash. I have few batch's of photos from Kalyn Guenther, so stay tuned.

There were no qualifying sheets posted. Go to live timing for qualifying. http://www.nhra.com/results/2017/luc...ock-eliminator

Anyone have the new Sat. run order?

Yo Ken!
Would be highly interested to hear what the word is on the tire, if in fact it was blowout or cut or not?

Brett, I will do my best to find out what the cause was.

Thanks Doug for the great camera work.

Good morning everyone, weather for today is a repeat of yesterday. We did have some unexpected rain last night, but its all clear now. Temperature is a chilly 55, but will warm up nicely by mid day to around 70. There is no run schedule as of yet. Yesterdays delay's will mostly likely see a major change in the schedule. I will post it as soon as I here something. Start time is 10am as always at Englishtown. The photo below is Joe Cokinos 96 S-10's catastrophic engine failure. As you can see you can't see Joe as the smoke just engulfed his S-10 and lingered for a few minutes.
