"Live" from the 2012 US Nationals in Indy! - Page 7

Larry Hill · 08-28-2012, 10:43 PM

Ben and Dave Wenzel C/S

Donnie Beeler and Travis Miller (see Travis can do something besides eat!)

Mark Prothero SS/VX

Tim Tosto C/S

All in all it was a beautiful day all day long. 80s and a nice breeze blowing. Tech seemed to run along smoothly all day. Parking went well also. Looks like most places are pretty much dried out. I took more pictures that I will get posted later. Stock starts out at 8:30 in the morning. I know that there are some stockers over in the stacking lot tonight. Hopefully things will go quickly in the morning and they will get teched and be able to run that first round. Stock runs 3 rounds tomorrow and then first round of class at 8:30 on Thursday. Super Stock gets 2 runs tomorrow and 2 on Thurs, then class on Friday.

Til tomorrow!

Thanks for all of the excellent photos so far...does anyone have any pics of some of the Grub or BBQ's or late nite drinks being served & stemware.

I have only seen two FS/S cars, sure hope there is enough for a good "Show"

Well here we are on Qualifying day! It is almost daylight and the stockers are up and at em! We don't run until 8:30 but folks are anxious and hoping they are fast enough to qualify. With 170 cars, you have to be at least faster than 42 other cars to make it in!

Here are a few more shots from yesterday:

Looks like some of you need to start building an ark.
