Sorry to hear that Rob, I was looking forward to racing & hanging out like at the LSX Shootout in Memphis.

These events are good times.

Hi guys....sorry did not get to post some stuff yesterday.

Over all turnout for the hot rod drags is 22 cars so far and that includes all three brands. That is not good. However, NMCA thinks they are getting another 25 today...not sure from where.

On the Vette side is Farley, Nicely, Smith and me in Hot Rod Drags. The good news there is all three of us are in the "Quick 8" so far with one round of qualifying left. Nicely is the lead GM car with a 10.03, Smith next with 10.06, I follow with 10.71. And the 8th quickest is our Camaro rep, Steve (Anonymous1) with an 11.03 on the squeeze. Mike Meeks is here and is running his GTO in Hot Rod and his Corvette in Late Model EFI.

Farley is off pace, how only has two 11.50x passes so far. He made four passes I think....LOL

We are having a great time. Paul Smith made us sandwiches for lunch and I made hot dogs for dinner and Farley mixed us some drinks.

NMCA does live timing so if you want to follow along, go to www.1320go.com and click on current tracks then NMCA.

Timing for the day could move around but looks like we ar on the track at noon and 4 today. They have been running us after the Pro Street cars which are the fastest NMCA has.
