“Live” from Norwalk 2021

[jmcarter]

Apparently NHRA.TV is MIA this morning….brrrr. But good luck Patsy and Larry!

Well we made it through 2nd round. We have Ben Wenzel next! A couple of oldies but goodies running each other!! Lol Probably a couple of hours

[Larry Hill]

Well the older and “Gooder” got us 3rd round! So we are on our way home !!

I want to know what happened to Bob Unkefer announcing division 3 races? I don’t know the name of the announcer this week but he announced at St Louis also. We need Bob back. By the end of the day, this guy mumbles so you can’t understand him.

Well there’s always next week again !

See y’all in Columbus for the JEGS Sports Nationals !

Why no final round results on DRC ?

There's no need for the comments about Drag Race Central.

Since Summit left, the expenses of covering a race is directly out of the pocket of the DRC staff. If they don't have a sponsor to at least cover their cost, they are no longer on site.

As for the reports when DRC is not at the track - that so many people seem to think they have a right to - those are generated when the track or division sends the run log data to Rick Green. He then manually keys in each pair in every round to generate the reports. I have never seen the reports be sent until the day's racing is over, certainly not session by session or round by round. And from experience, typing in a few hundred pairs and double checking it for accuracy takes hours.

Rick can do a lot of things, but he's not psychic. If no one sends the data there will be no reports.

Dan, UNFORTUNATELY many of us are spoiled by the excellent results of DRC. A BIG THANK YOU for everything that you guys do to get us the results. It’s a new day and age and I realize that you can’t report the results IF the track doesn’t send you the info.

As an alternative to DRC there are the detailed results on the Lucas oil page of the NHRA site. Just like what's on the time slip. Maybe someone could post a link, it's in the neighborhood of the live timing. Hope this is helpful.
