Heres some more from today. Random stock and Super Stockers from out and about. Good day for the hemi challenge, always a great race. Unfortunately not many mopars went rounds in class eliminations.

Hopefully they do better come the eliminator. A good amount of cars have packed up and left given the incoming weather.

Pleasure to meet you Josh and some other guys from FastMopar site. Thanks again Frito!

Also, final from the Supercar shootout. Not enjoyable to watch really, and no where near the reaction you heard when Wescott took on Daniels.

What car is this? I see shock travel sensors and are those pressure sensors on the wheelie bars?

Thanks for the great pics

Great pics, thanks! Nice to see some new SS/AH cars, and it's pretty cool that Connolly has "Grumpy's Toy" lettered on his Camaro; from what I gather, they were pretty good friends.

Nice to see you got a pic of my neighbor up the road. Larry Griffith's A/SA Drag pak car. That car is serial number 002 with Garlit's getting the first one in 2009. Typically runs a 6.1 in that car but put in their new 5.7 for the nationals.

I've raced Jamie a few times in time trials. Even though are cars run almost the same ET, his Demon KILLS IT out of the hole...it takes me till 3rd gear to catch up.




First time I made a time pass with Jamie at 41 I had my Duster. Looked over when we left and got a great view of the bottom of that Demon.

This was a class final in stock. What a joke. Watch two cars run to the 1000' mark.


Yup, people complain when Stock cars don’t run full out. Then people complain when they run too far under the index and NHRA straps HP to their class. Aren’t contradictions fun!

I love the SS/AH cars. To me they are the ultimate Mopar.

Yep still raining. Forecast is looking better for tomorrow but still bleak. I would be amazed if they get anything in.

Teuton still going in stock. I believe only 2 AH cars stayed for eliminations. There would have been some awesome first round pairings.

On a side note if it gets rained out tomorrow, anyone want my tickets for next weekend. Should cover sat/sun 2 reserved isle seats. $240 value... Free. I have to go back to work. Pm me on the board.

Andre,

Thanks again for the tickets for Friday. We had a great time! Thanks for posting your photos - they're much better than mine.

It was good to meet you. Hope to see you at Indy again in a few weeks.

Brian
