Yeah I like to look at the daily spread sheet.. shows who is out and what everyone is running and the average so far and the position everyone is in... that sheet was our bible on each year we were there

Not looking good for Larson. Have a HS buddy who is with him and they are pushing hard but it will be close. Have had a few electrical issues overnight. Running on Honda generator now and on battery #2

watching live, he's there but 12 minutes left to stage today. might give up on the door swapping today Edit: 7 minutes to go. Larson hasn't made it out and Lutz is swapping a head Edit: Both are in the staging lanes on time, the S10 is missing a hood. Lutz 6.94@213, not to shabby after removing a head, welding it, having it milled and then putting it back on

Word was that Larson had to change a conv yesterday at the track and was there LATE getting done with it.. then a storm rolled in so they figured to stay the night there and leave in the morning... but I'm guessing he had some problems making it to the track today since it shouldnt have taken him that long to get there today... and then to take a 20 second.... but he is still in it... he didnt even put on his wheelie bars for the burn out

The only thing I wonder is why he didn't do a half hearted run in road trim. I am guessing the truck would still run sub 20 without any troubles. turning in a 12s slip could win him the average if some more people end up turning a 20 in. I don't know much about these sorts of things though I am just enjoying the show from the youtube live stream
I think he was trying to... JMO but when he did the
burnout it sounded fine but when he backed up and launched
it was farting and banging and I BELIEVE he killed
his batteries during the burnout(just low voltage)
but Larry had issues all day with the alt and was
running a honda gen to keep the electrical up during
the day
