Stock got out for their first Q pass -- no mineshaft here but decent - probably 5 to 7 hundreths better than the 'Grove two weeks ago- 73 degrees - 61% humidity - 29.78 barometer and a final DA of 1811' . Most I spoke with hooked well in both lanes ........S/S up soon ......sheets not out yet -- more then .
Dropped by the Hoosier Tire area and both Roy and Frank were glad to swap some tires around for me -- nice folks to do business with for sure .
Glad to see Raceway Parks own resident Ron working this weekend .And then their's fuel check ..........not many issues this morning thank you .

Bob Mullaney is driving the Shoe car this race............

2 372 A/SA Jeg Coughlin, Delaware OH, '09 Challenger 10.019 11.00 -0.981

Wow! Never thought I would ever see a stocker go 9.41! Jeggie's Challenger is coming along nicely too.

Jack if you can find it there is a 71 Nova in GT/M on the entry list. Mike Papp is the name I think. Can you get a pic of it. 283 in a 71 Nova is interesting to say the least. Ed

Here's the deal -- no DRC -- can't find DRAW on the grounds -- we'll just have to wing it this weekend .Stock and S/S got their second shot in -- most slowed up three to five .

And how about Fezell ? 9.41 in a stocker ? How much is left ? These questions and more will be answered at this years Pennsylvania Dutch Classic --be there ! ! !

SuperStock class was just called to the lanes ............ BTW-- there must be a dozen SS/JA cars ...........

As always, great stuff Jack.
Much appreciated by those who wish they were there....
Hope Bob B gets a on his face....when he's on camera....this is a fun sport.....

5pm update - we're on rain hold and I doubt very much we'll get going again as Raceway Park has a 6pm curfew -- I'm sure they'll call it a day ..............


S/S leftovers -- Believe or not with all the SS/JA cars entered the two that are left --Linke with his killer Corvette and that pesky 75 year young guy with his stocker in S/S trim -- Bobby Warren .The Wally will more than likely be awarded to Linke as he was faster in proir class eliminations -- good driving Bobby - maybe next time .

As usual fifteen minutes after they call the thing the Sun comes back out and makes everyone look stupid .............
