Re: Live from Maple Grove - NHRA Auto - Plus Nationals
The NHRA decided on a plan for the Sportsman classes - because of the bad weather coming tomorrow they are going to run to completion tonight if possible .They have had several delays already tonight ---- I'm not sure how long they can go but S/S is out on the track as I type .........

Re: Live from Maple Grove - NHRA Auto - Plus Nationals
Bob Lang and the rest of the D1 staff def know how to adjust the schedule to beat the weather. Hopefully they can get the rest of the event finished tomorrow but nice to see the Sportsman racers won't have to sit thru it. Congrats to all the winners.

Re: Live from Maple Grove - NHRA Auto - Plus Nationals
They finished Super Gas and Super Comp as well, ran Comp and Alcohol down to four cars each. Don't know about you, but that sure beats sitting around all day Sunday (and Monday and...).

Re: Live from Maple Grove - NHRA Auto - Plus Nationals
I've never heard of this being done at a National before. Probably a good call. Perhaps NHRA will be flooded with complaints from spectators who expected to see sportsman racing tomorrow. Or not. Either way, it may be rather instructive to them.

Re: Live from Maple Grove - NHRA Auto - Plus Nationals
It seems Bob Lang and his crew always do the extra work to get it done. It is tough on them to run such a long schedule but it sure pays off for the racers and others involved.
