ok just got off the phone with my dad. He said he was #6 qualifier @ 10.51 125.41. the changes to the carb didn't work and so he changed back. Jim Bailey ran a 10.41 right next to him and that is who he races in the first round which should be going on right as I write this or soon after. Also larry hills car broke traction real bad and came close to the wall. He ran a 10.75 so I think he is the F 8 car out of eight. I assume McCormack is #1 qualifier..air was a little worse than this morning. so more when I talk with POPs..later Jason

Larry Hill · 10-13-2007, 05:56 PM

Top Stock:
1. McCormack 10.30, 129
2. Oakes 10.35, 127
3. Bailey 10.41, 126
4. Bennett 10.43, 125
5. Arnett 10.47, 124
6. Fuller 10.51, 125
7. Wells 10.64, 123
8. Larry 10.75, 125

We are only getting 1 time trial, then race tonight. Larry spun really bad and almost hit the wall. Wish we had Redman here to take care of the starting line. Nobody looked real good leaving.

No clean up runs this afternoon. Haven't been down to look at final qualifying. At the opens they usually don't use the qualifying to match up until 2nd round.

The chili is ready. Come on down.

In Top SuperStock:
1st round Pacquet redlighted against Brian Oakes
Schindler beat Depillo after something went wrong with Depillo
Then in the final:
Oakes, 9.01 beat Schindler's 9.05

In Top Stock:
Arnett 10.41, 124 beat Bennett 10.43, 124
Bailey 10.40, 126 beat Fuller 10.46
Oakes 10.36, 127 beat Wells, 10.49
McCormack 10.25, 129 beat Larry 10.39, 125

At least our car left good that time. I had forgot that the Charger didn't have wheelie-bars on it until it about turned over that time. It hooked really well.

They've called them back up.
More later.

Larry Hill · 10-13-2007, 09:37 PM

Round 2:
Oakes 10.30 beat Bailey 10.33
Jason 10.17 beat Arnett 10.40

And in the final:
Oakes 10.24 beat McCormack 10.20 on a hole shot.

So Oakes wins both Top Stock and Superstock.

Well, we run 1st round at 9:00 in the morning.

And Reliable Transmission got our motorhome fixed!!
Later,
Patsy

Some sporty weather. The top 39 cars out of 86 were a second under their respective indexes.

Top 10:

1) Steve Polhill EF/S -1.495 What the hell, the Canadian Dollar is so strong, he can just call Patterson's right?

2) Bob Gipson K/S -1.253 (set K record) 11.59

3) Rick Winchester H/SA -1.247 under

4) Jim Harrison K/SA -1.237

5) Dave Edwards B/FIA -1.220

6) Bert Morgan R/SA -1.213

7) Joe Schaechter J/S -1.210

8) Bob Gere L/SA -1.199

9) Dave Morgan F/FIA -1.197

10) Robert Bullock H/SA -1.183

Records:

Bill Dyer N/S

Bob Gipson K/S

Gary Summers O/S

Jimmy Gower M/S

Steve Pohill EF/S

Dave Schliender? GT/J

Rick South GT/EA

Other notable runs:

Capt Jack U/SA Q14 -1.147

Ellis Buth W/S Q 11 -1.161 only rear drive car with slicks that are narrower than the froon tires ( and it works)

Tim Weinzapful T/SA (old Cal Method, Fuller, etc. Car) -1.136

Bruce Witherspoon C/FIA -.95 ( those of you keeping track probably still at d weight)

Jim Hanlon G/SA -52 New car, still Boneyard fresh suspension

Jason McCormack went 10.12 in the morning session in A/S. Beast!

If the indexes were .2 lower, the cars qualified 79th on down would be over.

Larry Hill · 10-14-2007, 01:25 PM

Well we are on our way back home after another 1st round runner-up. Larry apologized to me this morning for really sucking this year. Oh well, there's always next year, or next week. I think we are going to Reynolds next week.

This morning Larry red-lighted against Greg Hill again. Out of the 8 Top stockers from last night 5 red-lighted. Only Fuller, Wells, and Bailey are still in. There were lots of redlights and breakouts. The weather was really better than the guages read.

Our motorhome is shifting, so all is well. We don't know what the final bill is yet, but at least we are on our way home.

We plan to go to Reynolds next week, so I will give you updates on this final points race of the year. Probably will be lots of heavy hitters there.
So til next week.

Patsy

Larry Hill · 10-14-2007, 04:14 PM

Forgot to congratulate Jason McCormack on his 10.17, 129 run in Top Stock and 10.12 in A/S
Good job!
