Stock finished its Q2 run about 9:15. About 3/4 of the cars made it down the track while it was still light out before there was an interruption for a clean up. The tailwind died and the barometer was just a few hundredths lower. As part of the "Show", the Stocker wheel stands were judged by a panel of fan judges. Mike Fuller in his B/SA Camaro had the longest distance - not sure who was the winner of the style award.

80+ Stockers are here. Chris Holbrook was #1 after Q1 @ -1.14.

S/S had been called to the lanes but the Super Category semis were to be run first.

I was looking through the qualifying for stock and found something amazing. It shows Bob Michael in K/SA at .7 under in a 1962 Grand Prix. I assume that is a typo, or what combo does he run in that car???

According to the qualifying data, which should match the tech card, it's a '62 Pontiac Grand Prix with a 389. Since I know zip about what class that puts him in, you now know everything I know.

Ron, It's a 389 ,Tri power 318 factory hp rating.
It went 11.77 a couple weeks ago at Indy.

A couple of photos before heading back to the track. Btw, the signal at the track is weak so posts are a struggle. Norwalk is famous for its $1.00 pound of Ice Cream. The line can get very, very long

Former Indy Hemi Shoot Out R/U Jim Keyes brought his SS/AH out of a 6 year rest with fresh Barton bullet

The are 8 AA/G exhibition cars here and all are first class and mostly period correct. These age cool.

And speaking of cool, the Klein Nomad made the long trip from Nebraska

Mark, thanks for the info. That car has to be one of my favorite stockers out there, now that I have seen a picture of it. The cool factor has to be pegged. Any idea how much the car weighs?? It can't be light. I remember a friend having one of them back in the day.
