LIVE from Budds Creek - Maryland Nitro Jam

1st rnd of Stock is done, and a strange one it was... Don't know how much was "strategy" and how much was weather, but people were all over the dial... .05 under, .05 over or more. I even ran the same guy that I ran in the last time shot. We both dialed about what we ran... Mine hardly budged, and he ran way off. Crazy. I've seen MIR throw some curveballs, but it seemed like many of these were self-induced.

That being said, there were many mechanical gremlins throughout the weekend. Jamie Southards slowed inexplicably, Myron split a rocker, Lisa Bolton took out a ring n pinion, so they swapped both the rear and trans. I think Ed Lonhaney (driving Mike's I/CM Duster) hurt a trans in testing last night.... DW, Jr's playing with carbs on his new GT/EA Camaro, Jeff Serra is getting a crash course in 4-Door Stocker class (and made it past a red Bill Belden).... Everybody's working on stuff!

Bertozzi was red to Dave Outten
Longhaney over Bolton
Truell over Ribeiro
Piatek over L'I'll Duane Eiskant
Gene Jordan was red
Bogan over Iacono big double breakout

Think DW Jr got his 1st round of SS!

...All the details on DRC
