Thanks for taking the time to post all the great pictures!

[Larry Hill]

you are welcome, David!

It looks like it is going to be another beautiful day here in Charlotte. Right now it is only 58 degrees and we run in an hour. Stock has 2 runs this morning, then into class. B/SA should have 5 or 6 cars, I think. I guess we will all know for sure after that first run. It is going to be a busy day, so more later.

44 Stockers made the first run and boy is it fast! There were a lot of uh-ohs after that run. 5 or 6 were over 1 second under. Up towards the top were Gary Richards, Robert Dean, Keith Lynch, Charley Downing, and Joe Santangelo. DRC should have the results soon. DRC schedule is incorrect for this morning. Stock gets another qualifying run before class starts.

46 cars made the 2nd pass. We run class after alcohol who is running now. Starting line here is crazy--some are hooking like crazy, then the one behind them will spin. Rick Baehr almost turned over Cradduck's car. If anyone posts a picture, be sure to check it out.

Hey Larry or Patsy,
If you happen to see Michelle Furr in super comp and super gas tell her hi from me. She and her family are good people.
Thanks

[Larry Hill]

Will do, Floyd. Beat Santangelo 1st round of class, now we have Zimmerman. Bud Rowe runs Joel Warren.

Larry/Patsy,

Sorry I couldn't make it for this one, I'm sure one of the professional photograpers got a picture, but they probably won't post without compensation. That's what I like about the ones I take at the track. It's for yall and not for profit. Wish I could have been there to have a chance at one like that.

Bill Howell and I are doing another calender for next year of Div2/Southern racers.

It has a habit of doing that running A. Maybe someone got a good shot of it and it'll get posted somewhere.
