"Live From" NHRA 4-Wide National

Hey Ken or Tom - This showed up on DRC - first round of stock
" 39 117 AA/SA Norm Hall, Waldorf MD, '08 Mustang 10.114 10.60 -0.486"

Then disappeared from the second & thrd runs. I know Norm is there with his S/S'er but what was this about? any idea?

Mix-up with the Competition Numbers...Norm is only there in the SS'er. Not sure who the mixup was but if you look on the sheet, there were always 59 cars.

Don, It was supposed to be Brooks Lee. Just a mix up.

Here is the first batch of pictures. Tom beat me to it, so there are some duplicates. I hope to have Chuck Veach with the in car and Jason Line tomorrow. It was a little hectic today, but I'm getting the hang of jumping from car to car with the camera.

Its been a great day of racing along with great weather. There were some issues with the track, but I think overall it was okay. It is a shame more racers can't get to this race, what a great facility they have here.

Class for stock will be first out at 830. The race I want to see is Iacono and Pendarvis, and don't count out Jason Line for C, he could be the dark horse. A B will also be very interesting. The weather in the morning will be in the upper 50's. I wonder who will be willing to take the chance at horsepower, should be fun to watch.

Ken,

Good luck to all the S/SS guys tomorrow. Put on a great show.

Next batch of pictures. I got them Butch. I will try to put them on tonight or tomorrow, thanks so much.

I forget to mention the pre stage bulbs. They are blue led's and when you put the top led on it is a half circle, when you stage is make a full circle. Not a big issue but many did not know about, some thought is was just for the pros. I did add it to the latest news section so everyone could read up about the change, but I guess not many read it.

No one that I talked to had any issues with the new bulbs.

If anyone would like me to email them pictures, just send email address to butch8908 on classracer. Send your car number so I can see if I got any good ones and will email them to you. They are about 1.4M each.

Was just out talking on the phone and discovered that somebody scraped the bumper on my truck. THANKS! Ridiculous. Heard a story just like last year about a wallet theft from a motorhome. Lock your stuff up! Sad that we have to deal with this kind of crap. I can't remember the last time I went to a race nad had to worry about my stuff. Ridiculous.

On a lighter note, more pics....
