Default Re: Live from Atco,NJ - NHRA National Open Series

Good morning - Internet service here at Atco really sucks this weekend - even phone connections are terrible and they don't have their WI-FI turned on .

Records set yesterday - some were not backed up and none were torn down yet .

Stock - Curcio H/SA
Barton CC/SA
Meile G/SA
Richard C/SA
Allegincc AA/SA

S/S - Blais GT/DA
Lawrence GT/AA
Garbarine GT/IA
Walkiwitz SSAH
Nagy GT/TA
Bongiovani SS/BA

Teardown will commence today - competitors will be allowed to better their records this morning .

Sorry if the members got ditched yesterday but both Ken and I had their hands full most of the day and into the night .My bad luck of this week continued yesterday as most of the day was spent trying to hook the car up.

And for those of you who are always bustin' on me about not getting my hands dirty - where were you yesterday ?

Hope you get your traction issues found and fixed today! We're anxiously waiting for Ken to post your "bumper-dragging" video. I'm sure it will go viral!

Good Luck to you and everyone racing at Atco this weekend!

BTW - How are folks adjusting to the "new" water-box with no back-stop?

OK- so you bent my arm a little more - here are a few more S/S ers......


The last shot is of NHRA 's Dave Mohn on the track - you fill in the caption - mine is --- " Look Diane - its heads you lose ". Hope he's having a good day as I know he reads here .

The new paint job on the truck is quite cool. And speaking of Marc, I was on my way to Mom's last night-I got off the MA Pike in West Springfield to get on I-91 south, turned on 105.5 FM to listen to the Red Sox game, and on came .Marc doing an ad for Diamond RV
