Looks like they got a little rain at Beech Bend.
As of just after 2pm central time, they're still drying the track. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLVCA-BJl_g It'll take 7 round wins to win this one. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...er=30#indextop |

Yeah, it may take a real good light to win the semi final. Peter's opponent has cut a .001 & a .000. You can't get much better than that.
But, Peter has won a lot of races, so I won't bet against him. Last edited by ponyakr; 09-18-2016 at 10:07 AM. |

Out in Utah, looks like Leo had some problems with his Stocker, finishing on the bottom of the Q-1 list. Hope he gets it fixed for elims.
http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop Don Kennedy & Carroll Warling qualified in the #3 & #4 positions, in SS. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop |

All the Pontiac Stockers survived E-1 !
Don Turk won a really close race, with both drivers cutting a good light & running their dial-in.http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop It's still raining out West. But, they expect sun by noon. http://classracer.com/classforum/sho...6&postcount=37 Last edited by ponyakr; 09-24-2016 at 10:34 AM. |

![]() http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop Out in div 7, most of the 1st race of the doubleheader got rained out. So, they're gonna finish both races today. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop |

In the 1st race of the div 7 double header, Scott Burton survived 3 rounds of Stock elims, with his '70 RA IV Formula.
![]() http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...r=100#indextop But, he just barely broke out, in the quarter final round, when his opponent cut a .004 light. ![]() http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop Don Kennedy made it to the final 5, in SS. ![]() http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...19282#indextop Both Brad Burton & Leo Glasbrenner made the top 10, in SS. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...er=30#indextop Maybe the Pontiac guys will do better in the 2nd race.

There's a National event on the East coast, this weekend. But, yesterday's schedule got washed out.
![]() They're trying to get the track dried out, so the action can begin today. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop There are a few Pontiacs entered. According to the pre-entry list, Randi Lyn Shipp & Adam Strang will be running Stock, and Sam Biondo will be running SS. Good luck to these Pontiac powered racers !

Looks like there are now 6 Pontiac powered Super Stock cars qualified. They are driven by Keri Angeles, Robert Cruzen, Don Kennedy, Scott Burton, Leo Glasbrenner, & Larry Maxwell.
http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop So, that makes 15 Pontiac powered cars entered, in this race. I think that's the most I've seen in recent years, at any big NHRA event. Last edited by ponyakr; 11-04-2016 at 01:53 AM. |
