Live from Maple Grove-NHRA Toyo Tire Nationals

[Jack Matyas]

Good morning -- they were up very late last night using the vacumn with headlights here at the Grove trying to insure that things this day were put back on schedule .Yes , you read it right -- Stockers are going out for their 1st round first thing today at 8:30 .Even the ones who didn't get a time shot yesterday were put on the bottom of the ladder .

Today's weather at this moment doesn't look too bad with the Sun peaking thru some clouds and temp in the high sixties but the humidity is much lower -- rain is expected later today ( between noon and 3pm ) and tomorrow -- how much is anybody's guess -- local weather channel says localized flooding is expected - just what we don't need .

Heard a rumor yesterday that Maple Grove wants its original date back in September for next season - I'll try to confirm this for you.........Hmmmmmmm .

As for SuperStock class runoffs -- don't know yet if their cancelled but more than likely they are as a whole bunch of classes are yet to run this morning .My thought is their second qualifing shot will also become class with the fastest becoming Wally winners .

Back later as things move on .........
