The Bowtie babies are posting on Classracer.com that there is a low car count among the AH cars and they don`t understand why there is still a Shootout. Their jealousy over the attention the AH cars get is amusing.

i dont think there is really a shootout in belle rose,, i think its a misprint from nhra,, mopar is only doing the shootout at indy this year,, so mopar isnt putting up any money for it

the guy who owns/runs belle rose puts on a good show,, is a racer himself,, and their program is racer friendly,, he probably is just running the hemi cars today for their class run off because he knows fans like to see them compete,, but with only 5 cars there,, wont be much of a show

wofford unloaded on his 63 run and it shifted into 2nd way too early, could be a 55-57 in it, i dont know what henson has done

Chuck, that was a typo. It was $50,000 and was tied to the track ownership transition that happened the next day . A D4 thing.

BUT never believe what you read on the internet......

In case any of you have been wondering why the "Frito Bandito" hasn't been posting; he was involved in a fatal crash at his job. He's okay but a father & son were killed. This has obviously made a huge impact on him. He should be back on board soon.
I for one have missed his humor.

Any idea who's attending the SS/AH Shootout next weekend? I'm going to be in town for a wedding. Trying to decide whether I want to make it an early Friday night and be at the track Saturday A.M.

Well I won't be updating tomorrow:(

After round 1

Hebert 8.57
Raybourn 8.73
Houser 8.88

I'm not sure of the rest.....we lost a driveshaft in Spyphish and tore up some stuff so we are done. Houser hurt his engine in rd 2, so now there are only 5 cars left.

But beautiful weather and a nice track made for a good race for us so far.

The .57 with Hebert's was at 152 also, lost the shaft around 7 seconds....

Look out!!
