We have a big cold front coming thru

I expect rain and lots of it

Just not sure where it will hit yet

sounds like Aberdeen will get at least 1 to 1 1/2

I wonder how busy this event gets. I'd be interested in doing some T&T stuff, but almost sounds like that's just an option from 9-1 on Sunday??

No I have a black and yellow avenger now. In the past there has always been plenty of time for test and tune runs between classes.

cool

Don't know much about the track, know where it is
right on ol hwy 30 I visit Kearney about once a month for work

can you help me locate tech, etc ..

Any newbie tips you can share about the track ?


Did you sell the Coronet ?

(or did I dream you had one ?? )

I still have the Coronet but just dont race it anymore. Tech is usually at the front of the staging lanes unless they move it for this race. NHRA tech for the Super classes and STK/SS is on the return road. The track prep is very good since the division 5 starter works at Kearney on the weekends that there are no divisionals. He takes pride in his track prep.

If the air is good Kearney is a fast track. Been there many times.

Last year I was making passes in the morning with a temp of 38 degrees and the car was hooking. I'd say Bobby does a great job prepping the track. Wish it was like that at all local tracks.

No the coronet is not for sale. I know what you mean Ron, I dont think I will ever go back to that place unless something really changes.

I have asked my buddy who lives in Lexington many times how in the world you can always be driving into a headwind, and the sun is always shining in your driver's window, no matter what direction you're going.
