I only had time to watch a couple minutes of the live stream yesterday and it was right when they were interviewing Joel, pretty cool.
This drag week stuff is really neat and it has sparked my interest in getting back to racing. Even if you don't do dragweek I really like the idea of driving to my local track with a small trailer full of tools and tires instead of having to buy another big truck and trailer deal. I enjoy driving to the track or doing the simple open trailer for out of town. At some tracks we back the trailer up to the fence and to set our lawn chairs on and put a popup tent over it. Pump gas makes it cheap and easy too.

Looks like Ray (sixpackgut) is doing good with his average.
The ford that is behind him ran .01 quicker than Ray. But I'm sure that's not enough to move his average!
Go Ray,
I met jericogtx at martin MI. Nice guy, good mechanic!
Don Oh wow I just looked at the 4 day results. Ray is .013 ahead in his 4 day ave. So today is crucial! Go Ray. Don

Pump gas makes it cheap and easy too. Yea I loved my 24' box trailer and I liked my 16' open trailer for reasons like that along with the Hemi Ram but I sold all that stuff due to the weekly 9 second Racing getting expensive and I wanted to fully concentrate on my son's sports, now he has a trashed left knee and I'm getting bored lol, might have to get me a hitch for the back of the Duster lol. And pump gas is the only way I roll, much cheaper and easier.

Pranis pulled out because the car isn't running to its potential.
I'm sure he'll get it figured out, love that car.

Re: the Gremlin-
Wow....... Huge facility..... Only 300+/- cars ...... And it's gets crunched in the pits?
I'd be one VERY unhappy camper about that!!!!

I'd be one VERY unhappy camper about that!!!! Usually at Indy they arrive late and park way in the back as well (at least the last 2 years). Someone would almost have to be looking to run into it, real unfortunate.
