Live from Atco , NJ - NHRA National Open

[fredjohnston]

Divisional "Open Races" are not National events or LODRS events. Therefore, only runs of 1.20 or more under the index count toward the AHFS stats or HP increases. The divisional open series races are the only races left where a competitor can run "fast", within reason.

I simply do not understand certain racers who go to National and LODRS events and continually run fast for no reason. They only hurt themselves and other people who run the same engine combo. All certain racers need to do is go to an "open series" event and let it all hang out and it hurts no one..unless they go more than 1.20 under.

Finally --- I'm baaaaaaackkk ! ! Stock just completed their last time shot .Conditions are a little worse than yesterday - maybe a few hundreths .Cloudy and overcast right now but patiently waiting for the Sun to peek out .

First round I estimate to be around 1:30 -- barring another pollen out or what-ever .

I'll be back with a few pics ..........

They just called stock to the lanes. Below is the qualifying sheet for stock. If I get the Super Stock sheet I will post it.

Jack is having trouble getting online, hopefully he will be on later.

This pollen deal is out of hand - during the last twenty four hours many have questioned my eyesight and a few have just said " no f'''in way " -- here are some clear pics - you be the judge .

Because there are still many Stock/Super Stock racers that work hard and strive to set records. Kudos to them and their hard earned results. Just means others will need to harder as they should in any performance class; and judging by those runs the potential is there for others to run just as fast.
