Re: Live from Reading,PA - NHRA PEP BOYS Nationals
Did George and Bubba get themselves bounced for a year?

Thank you Ken for the Great pictures and coverage. I know everyone is very busy, but if someone could put a qualifying sheet together for Stock and Super Stock it would be very much appreciated. The Best of Luck to all competitors and have a Safe race. Still "chomping on the bit" up here in the Bronx. Respectfully, Henry Kunz 1534 H/SA |

Re: Live from Reading,PA - NHRA PEP BOYS Nationals
Ken , great job on the photos and the video. Don't know how you find the time to do it all - amazing.
Question for you - How do you judge the finish line when you are going 74 m.p.h. faster than the other car like in round 2 against Eric?? - just curious.

Good question... Its tough to judge and I missed it big time, its almost instinct knowing when to dump. Sometimes its easy if a slow car is late or can't run the number. I did a poor job of driving, I was late... Eric was on time but he was going way fast. I think he was a .44 or .45 on a .55 dial. He dumped but only killed .059, only...lol. I dialed hard and my plan was to stick it, but I should of just let out of it as I was not getting there, that's what a good racer does. Like I said, I did a poor job, I was just as little luckier. Super Stock round 2. We are done for the day, Stock is out tomorrow at 8:45am for 3rd round. |
