Nevertheless, Fletcher in E looks strange...no Merryfield sightings I assume.

Plenty of Merryfield sightings, you just have to know where to look. Merryfield sighted driving the offensive drag pack on the block, many dirty looks earned and cleary thinking of drinking beer. Merryfield sighted loading the car on the trailer dressed in business atire and drinking beer. Removing the F from the windows, struggling with the bikes on the bike rack, charging the batteries and drinking beer. Hauling the trash out and drinking beer. Soon there shall be pool cleaning and drinking of beer. In the early AM there shall be many miles on the treadmill, pondering of what class to run, a brisk tow out to LV, and no drinking of beer.

Hey Eric, Your nothern neighbor (F/SA) "bailed out" on attending the LVD race!
(even with the hit) after Bristol!

That car is For Sale!

The "Rumor from Vacationland" is If the "Team Oak Tree boyz" keeps pushing, they'll convince MC "Hammer" to buy a DP!

Teuton should LOVE hearing that!
Lucky Strike!

Shortage of cars ?? I don't think so as I'm told we're past last years numbers and already over 500 here - parking seems to be the biggest problem this morning for track workers.And the place is jammin' - everyone is upbeat about this race and the great weather coming at us the next few days .

And now a word for our sponsor - well almost - this morning I got to meet Bernie - the Diamond RV tech and I couldn't resist throwing an oddball problem or two at him just to see -- you know -- like a test and he passed with flying colors .....wish I had a guy like him working for me ! ! Anyway those who signed up to get service or adjustments here at the track I'm sure were pleased - pictured below is Al Mark along with Bernie working on Al's stuff and as you'll see Al is all smiles --- and he's tough .Everyone is happy except Bobby Broadbent -- he had a problem in his coach and still needs a 9 volt battery and if you have one offer it to him -- but stand back ! ! ! Wayyyyyyyyy back .

This morning while out for a walk I noticed a round cylinder type thing in the corner of a certain sponsor's trailer - not sure but could it be .........Nah --- well maybe ---we'll see . Hint-- it had some writing on it -- what's a Busch ?????

They just called SuperStreet to the lanes ..........

If any one runs into the Atlantic Canada racers(John Armstrong,Bruce Riley etc.) could they let them know that their friends and fans from Nova Scotia will be following and rooting for them. Lets go John,keep that winning streak alive!!!!

Hmmm, that sponsor must have a good plumber that fabbed up a sweet-looking keg cooler, maybe? Contents inside expressly intended for washing down the Lebanon Valley french fries?

Stock just finished run #1 and because of a terrific headwind that blew in most were pretty slow - more when the sheets come out -- except for Mr.Merryfield who decided to put a "C" on his window and promply went a 10.20 ...........

My crack about using a Sorensen bullet was in pure jest. I know Tilburg pieces are top shelf.

If the new adjustments are effective 7/6 can any of the hit combos still set records at the old weight?
