"Live" from Charlotte O'Reilly Nationals - Page 6

Well nothing is due to start here for nearly another couple of hours, but it is misting rain! The forecast is calling for just a little this morning, with more later tonight. Hopefully everything will still go on as scheduled. More later.

Well I finally got my pictures to upload this morning. All of these were taken on Friday:

This is the view from the stands where I sit taking times. This was taken just before stock rolled out at 8 am.

That is the view looking toward the starting line. Look at all those people in the stands getting ready to watch Stock!

Always great to be racing Sunday. Good luck, hope the weather clears. If you have a chance, try the fish sandwich combo at ShowMars, about 5.5 miles south on 29 on the left at McCullough Dr. Great malt/milkshakes there also. Difficult to get a rig in and out of there though.

Well it had stopped raining and they were drying the track, but now we are on hold again and it is really raining now!

Here are a couple of pictures from this morning:

Rumors had it that we would start about 3:30 -4:00 if it didn't rain again. Then it started raining again! It is calling for rain here thru Tuesday, but who knows?? They obviously missed it this morning!

looking at the radar ,it looks like the rain should stop shortly if it hasnt already gmonde

They just announced we will start racing at 4 (45 minutes from now) if no more umbrellas go up. Then race tonight until we are finished! So we should be running maybe by 7-8 tonight.

Does anyone have pictures or video footage of the 2nd round of Super Stock?
