Re: Live from Maple Grove - NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing Serie
What a difference a day makes -- the hot and humid conditions of yesterday are gone today and most picked up anywhere from .15 to .25 over yesterday .The track had real teeth this morning with spectators getting a real wheelstand show from the Stock and SuperStock guys and gals .
Q-2 should be coming up again for us shortly ......be back then .FYI -the Internet connection here is terrible so bear with me . Pictured below are some victims of this mornings good air ............

Re: Live from Maple Grove - NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing Serie
Q-2 was anywhere from .05 to .12 slower for everyone - traction wasn't an issue but most lost a few in their sixties . Weather was the main factor in going slower - air for the Stockers when they ran was in the 3400 range .
Because this morning was so sporty more than usual had breakage ......even the .90 guys had their woes .......pictured below is Tommy Goldman holding class on how to rebuild PowerGlides in the pits .......and we were going to eat on that table later . Wendy and Ron are in the house this weekend ...........ain't love grand ? ? One last thing before dinner - how about 97 Stockers here and some to arrive tomorrow AM ...
