Torrance made the run, made the top end turn, and then coasted half way back to the pits. Could see all that from top end camera.

Problems with Jonny's car on the fire up; pushing out of the box and headed back to the pits

 

[Cliff]

Drama on the line. Head's Stang. started it up & I could see Head looking at something, and they shut it off. Hmmmm BTW anyone notice that the paint scheme on Head's car is much like a car he ran years ago.

suzuki just ran a few minutes. suited w/helmet driver was watching from line. wondering if that is m. salinas' daughter on the bike?

That bike has made several passes, all in the 7.70 range. If it's PSM, going way too slow. Wonder who it is?

 

[Cliff]

Noticed that the wall behind the starting line is all white paint now. Last Sat, it was all bare wood, both sides. They painted it fast. Martin! Post something Bro. The last 3 posts are just me!
