Default Re: LIVE from Norwalk LODRS

Rain finally caught up with us about 9pm. Got two time shots and first round in. I was first pair out in eliminations, and the track was perfect again.

$100 test and tune is too rich for my blood. I learned what I needed to learn today. Got plenty of work to do this week, so will probably roll in Friday morning if I can help it, late Thursday best case.

Still got polka music.
Still got cheap dinner (1# for $1!) ;-)

I did see a couple Stockers here today as well, 'regulars' Roy Dean (R/SA) and Larry Stroscher (J/SA).

See y'all next week!

I can also say the track was extremely killer as I was next to Michael in that first pair out and Kurt Johnson has done a great job in turning this track around as far as track prep is concerned compared to the last few years and yes it was deffinately a SS/CM you could just hear that car and tell it was a SS/Modified entry! I will be at Norwalk this upcoming weekend as a pro class racer spectator for hopefully Friday,Saturday,Sunday and hope to see everybody there!!!

Never did find out where they were pitted, and they were behind me in the lanes so I didn't catch any of their runs. Hopefully they'll be there again this week.

It was nice seeing you Michael. They only got one round of SP and Pro in. And next week, you should be able to pick up your split at customer service. We'll be spectating. See you next week. Dave

What Dave said. They should have the list at Customers Service in the Quarter Mile Clothing Company building. Unlike some tracks, there's no time limit I know of for collecting money you've won.

Now that's customer service! 'preciate it.

I did notice that Kurt Johnson came around to talk to some of the racers to get their input on how the track was working, etc. I was catching up with some old friends that run Motorcycle when he came up on the golf cart, and they talked details on the run, not just "Hey, everything workin' ok?"

Two thumbs up!


Here's the one pic I got this past weekend... Roy Dean, R/SA
