"Live" from the Indy US Nationals 2015

Chuck Beach · 08-29-2015, 11:05 AM

It is a beautiful day here at Indy, there are about 40 rigs in line outside the fence along the road. We will be staged sometime on Sunday and parking will take place on Monday. All NHRA staff are in BG. There is a slight chance of rain in the area this weekend but the rest of the week looks great. Randall why the hp hit before Indy? Patsy can take it from here ....

Chuck,

Nice start to what will be the most watched post of 2015. Don't be bashful about posting and adding your view as well as your 2 cents. The more reporters the better. And we're all hooked on our electroinics and NEED SOMETHING TO CLICK ON!

Good luck in class, you had that Cuda flying at the Class Nationals.

FYI I don't usually get here until tomorrow BUT here tonight; west side of track off road grass parking full and south side as well. We are on a side road to a truck facility by SE gate so camp at a rest stop or truck stop for the night. Then just mosey (southern thing) in in the morning. See ya'.

Just to let everyone that the weather is going to be perfect, can't wait to leave. Just a 15 hours drive from home to see this great race, my annual pilgrimage the Mecca of drag racing. This year will be a little harder on us Canadian since our Looney(dollar) is close to 26 cents lower than the U.S dollar plus add 10% for the banks to exchange, you can see that we are going to watch our pennies. Can anyone tell us what time the Force and Shumacher Fan appreciation open house start at?Looking forward to talking to as many of you guys and gals out there. Claude Ruel.
