Nice to see Greg Carrillo racing again. He hasn’t ran since the final Mile High Nationals is 2023. I believe he may still live in Colorado. If Glenn Mikres is still calling the shots he could be a late round contender. He consistently qualified mid pack in his few appearances in NHRA. Should be a low 80’s car.

Well it is over and ended pretty much on time, a few delays but not too bad. Plenty of cars and action, small spectator crowd we got out in less than 10 minutes.
Might go over tomorrow not sure yet. Garlit's and Muldowney were there and some the TV guys.

How did it take 10 minutes? God forbid a crowd does show up, it might take hours to get out of there. When you can easily count the people in the crowd, that's not a good thing.

The show was ok tonight, not many full pulls in the nitro classes. No surprise, the quality cars were the show and the field fillers, were field fillers. Was shocked to see Scott Palmer not make the show.

When the Spring Nationals were there it was easily an hour to get out

Pretty exciting watching Mckalien staying in. 2 seater got mentioned several times, a great show.

Funny, piperacks, really fast door cars and nitro motorcycles... In the 70s and 80s, this would be considered a great race weekend at OCIR, National Speedway, Detroit Dragway or even E-Town...

This gets a from me; A for effort
