28th Annual Southern Nationals

Today starts qualifying at the NHRA/Summit Racing Equipment Southern Nationals. There are 68 entries on the Stock Eliminator roster. Even if there are a few no-shows this always shapes up to be a tough race to win, with the best talent on the east coast competing.

Butch and Randy Payne

I attached a picture of Randy Payne, Hall of Fame Stock, Super Stock and Pro Stock legend. Randy's son Butch advanced to the third round in their wheelstanding E/SA Pontiac Firebird.
Butch was defeated by eventual event winner Painter Stevenson.

Congratulations to Tom "Painter" Stevenson

Congratulations to Painter for his Stock win today at SGMP. Great driving all day long !!!

Congratulations to Dallas Burger

Congratulations to SGMP regular Dallas Burger for winning the " Perfectly Strange" award for running a dead on 10.90 in his first round victory in Super Street at the LODRS in Cecil, GA today. Way to go Dallas !!!

First round at SGMP

After some testy weather, it's time for the first round at the LODRS race at South Georgia Motorsports Park.

Southeast Divison Jegs Allstars

The South Georgia Motorsports Park Divisional will determine the Jegs Allstar Stock Division 2 representative for 2008. It appears that Brenda Grubbs has a lock on that honor. Shelby Cohen and Chris Puzycki have a mathematical chance but Brenda would have to lose in the first round and one of them would have to advance to at least runner-up.
Anything can happen and we have three really good drivers battling it out. BEST OF LUCK TO ALL OF YOU !!!

South Georgia Motorsports Park LODRS

Looks like a great weekend four the fourth race on the Division Two schedule

Is it just me ?

What is the general concensus of what NHRA has done with the Fuel Injection classes that were thought to have distinct advantages over the early muscle cars a few years back. I don't hear complaints about that.

Upper class stockers

Does everyone agree that the upper class stockers have become increasingly popular. More of the "professional sportsman" (I hate that oxymoron) stock eliminator drivers have made the switch.
Do you think that diminishes the chances of the lower classes ?

New Corvette Stocker

Today I added a picture of the new car being finished at Jimmy Parker Race Cars. This car will be driven by Woodro Josey. As with all the cars Jimmy builds this one is sure to be a real winner.

Welcome to my blog

I created this blog to give NHRA stock eliminator racers another means of expressing ideas and opinions other than the traditional message boards now being used.
Hope everyone that wishes to will use it.
