Here you go Gator, first photo is John Armstrong's Camaro.

Testing is almost over for today. I did not get a chance shoot the starting line, I had to work on my car. We had some short rain delays, but the front has now moved through.

Next batch....

The next set of photos is what I believe is the first 2019 production Cobra Jet to hit the track. There are many racing today, but they are updated 16's. This one is driven by Jonathan Allegrucci.

I believe Drew Skillman's & Geoff Turk's are '19s even though they weren't built to total running completion at Watson. Geoff's is #15, not sure about Drew's. Very cool to see one delivered complete by Watson at the track. Do you happen to know the number for this one?

I think Drew's was #2

I know those cars very well and they are very different from the production Cobra Jet. This car is a front to back, nut and bolts along with interior, a Ford Performance production Cobra Jet. This is number 8 I believe, Turk's maybe 15, but its with a asterisk in my opinion.

Its sad to say, but most Cobra Jets are built by their owners pretty much ground up. COPO's are mostly production cars with update cages.

Good morning gang - What a night !! Forget about sleep last evening as a storm rolled in around 10ish and was it a whopper.Even got a tornado warning .

But this AM its a whole different story as the Sun is super brite and there is a slight breeze that will help dry things off.

The first Q runs were to start off with Stock at 8:30 but there has to be plenty of water on the track so it may not happen on time .

We'll keep you posted …….

Stock got their first Q run in - much faster than the gauges were showing with a strong tailwind to boot.Track had great teeth this AM .SuperStock is in the lanes.

High number of cars considering what the weather was showing with some still rolling in .Pits are a bit soggy from last nights storm as the below pics will show.

For those of you who are at the track and looking to get Q-sheets Racers For Christ will have them shortly- they are located just before the scales on the left side and have a orange cone to lead the way.Bring your dollar- its for a good cause.
