The caffine must work. Daniels just went 8.29!!!

We heard from the Barton camp the car was spinning down track and they were hoping for better traction tomorrow....WOW.

Will the ss/ah cars run on Sunday also... or is tomorrow their last day to run?

They cancelled the SS/AH runoffs for Saturday due to the weather. Jim Daniels was the low SS/AH qualifier, so they gave him the trophy, Gary.

great to see the West Coast Hemi cars are out a again. Who is doing their motors now that Harry has retired.

I was wondering the same thing since Julie said a few months ago that they are no longer involved.

Well I've not spoken to Michael Ogburn in a year so don't profess to know much of what is going on with the WCH's. To my knowledge, two of the cars have Dad's motors in them. They are, obviously, not "new" technology and the newest of them was built in 2004. Jerry Jenkins' car will have a motor built by Eric Jones in it. Jerry's car is also sporting new paint, similar to the other two cars. We've not had the cars since September so I don't know anything that has transpired to the cars/motors since then.

Julie, how is Harry doing?

Any Super Stock racers near Wichita Kansas?

Here's a flyer for an event coming up at Wichita's Kansas International Raceway (1/4 mile)

While it's not a huge event, it sure would be great to see some Hemi power show up.

Select tab for Event Flyers and see April 17th for details:

Kansas International Dragway

Anyone have any times from Vegas yet?

The TNT didn't start until around 4. CWJ went up but I don't think anything substantial happened. Booker and Daniels will go up soon. So far that is all that I know
