Live from Gainesville 2013

I'm listening, and watching it snow out my window here in Rome, NY

Stock is finished with their second qualifying run. It was about 4 slower, but still 50 fee below see leave. Super Stock is ruining as I type.

The in car cam is me, seeing as it was easy to setup. I will try to get someone else for first round in class. The sun glare was pretty bad. That's why its hard to see the track, it should be a little bit better later on today.

First round of class is over for stock. Many picked up, but I can not give you any numbers, sorry its just to hectic to race and get the info. I do know Bo Butner broke in CC and I won first round in Class.

They are running Super Stock Class as I type.

Here are a few shots of the staging lanes for stock class.

DRC has first round of class up...

And again, thanks Larry, Ken, and Jeff for all the posts. It's snowing in Syracuse N.Y. just as it is further east where Ryck Campbell is.
Looking forward to more updates.

Myron and Jim and others(?); mine seems to freeze up on a pair periodically and I just click the "NHRA Live" and it refreshes and gets back in sync. If I get the error message I just close that screen and it doesn't ask me to log back in, I just go right back to live timing. Audiocast hasn't missed a beat although them backfilling for Alan (with Bob's retirement) is kinda hit or miss.

Walt, I'm glad to do it. I never realized how much I depend on my golf cart. I was able to make it down to the staging lanes to find a candidate for the in car cam. I know we have seen Pete Biondo many times, he was there ready and willing for me to setup the camera in his car.

After giving him a big congrats for his double win South Georgia Motorsports Park, he was more than happy to have the in car cam.

45 3361 CC/SA Bo Butner, Floyds Knobs IN, '13 Mustang 9.854 10.60 -0.746

Anyone happen to know if that is a 5.0 or a 427?

Ken Miele · 03-14-2013, 03:40 PM

Bo's CJ runs a 427, he broke a trans in class and should be back for the eliminator.

Talk about some fast runs!

Eakins went 1.21 under in D/SA with a 5.9 DP, 10.33 at 106. Looks like a 10.1x run by the incrementals.

Looked like Charlie Bob was going about a 10.52 in G/S.

The blown mustangs are flying, too. Holbrook's going 8.60s in AAA, I want to see how fast Skillman can go in AA.
