NSCA "bake and fry" today at Cecil County.

Lil' Jack went 8.75 @ 154 today in terribly humid 90 degree heat (I'm totally sun baked). He was in the 8.70's all day but I think that was his best overall run. 32 pill in his fogger and 3500+ lbs. race weight. He's allowed to run as large as a 34 pill in his class. Race directors put some funky goop on his nitrous fittings to make sure the jets weren't being changed (they did it for everyone). Race directors also told him he was allowed to weigh as little as 2900 lbs. I think. The rest of his field are all running 7.70's-7.80's...but they're all running BIG engines (632 inches in most cases), so Jack has his work cut out for tomorrow.

Troy Tribby was running 12.01-12.02 all day, which will work out great for his American Muscle Car "no breakout" index class.

Herb Hagen was a little quick today for his index, running high 10.90's. Gotta' slow it down to 11.00 or a little slower.

Bruce Maichle was running 8.70's and is poised to take a class win tomorrow. His next closest competitor is nearly 2 tenths slower, but could pick up tomorrow.
