Jack Matyas · 10-09-2014, 03:53 PM

Hi gang - Seems like I was just there a few days ago and am not yet there but will be soon as work got in the way again .As most of you already know today was time trials all day and record runs to boot .The only record I could confirm was set by our own Marc LaBrecque in GT / TC - 9.98 @130 but won't be official until after teardown tomorrow morning .

Others - Frank Ferrucci - J/SA
Jerry McNeish - D/S
Jason Kinash - L/SA
Dave Mitchell - K/SA
Dave Thomas - SS/EA
Joe Mendillo - E/M ?
Rich Oakes - SS/CX?
And these will also have to teardown in the AM as well .

More as info becomes available ..........

Hi Jack-

Any idea how late they're parking people tonight?
I guess I should also ask if there are any pit spots left!

Thanks,
Eddie Bolton

I know there is the PDRA event in Virginia for Top Dragster/Sportsman. I don't know what happened to Comp round one, but between those three class's there already down 80 cars.

What is the run schedule for Friday.

Jack Matyas · 10-10-2014, 07:24 AM

Good morning - Welcome to day two @ the Classic .At this moment the Sun is coming up and it could turn out to be a very nice Fall day.Want numbers ? The barometer is steady at 29.53 ( so much for mineshaft conditions ) with the humidity at 64% but with the Sun helping some will burn off .Temp at 48 and the VP at a low .22 withe a final DA of 232' which should make it a faster day than yesterday .We'll see ..........

Anyhow - tech will be open in an hour and there is still plenty of great pit space available so if you're on the the fence all I can say is saddle up and get over here ........Later .

Dave Casey · 10-10-2014, 07:26 AM

The full schedule is posted under daily info on the Div 1 site, on fri tt's start at 930, stock class starts with the second tt

The baro is good, not great, was only 30perc humidity yesterday, the temp is key.

Looks like the rain will hold off for awhile or maybe all day

the car count is low currently for this event, but rigs have been pulling in and the weather has taken a turn for the better.

42 degrees this am, 36 yesterday

They started running at 9:30. Close to finishing Stock Q4 now. Stock class eliminations will be later today, as well as more qualifying and time trials. The schedule calls for 11.50 index, 10.00 index and 8.50 index to close out the day at 5:30 p.m.
