Drivers are out of the cars at the staging lane. This was the first run of the day.

Hard to believe that team is still having rear end issues. Did the diaper not work?

Congrats to Alan Bradshaw and the Manitoba-based, Doucette Racing team, on qualifying #1 in TAD!

The impression I got from .TV,......Sorta.

I'd say, it's time for a new chassis MFG.
They are the only one still running DSR.

Yes, we can nit-pick here and there about DRC. I don't know how many people they have covering each race. Chances are, it's ONE guy. But I am real glad they are still around. They are my go-to source for NHRA race coverage Fri-Sun during National Events. And they've been doing it since 1998, according to their archive of yearly races. I think overall they do a great job.

We used to be sponsored and had multiple people at every event. We also used to have one person at every Lucas Oil series event.

I still have a nhra.tv acct and tried to login yesterday which was successful but when i clicked on it,it wanted me to pay,no free preview. So i couldnt tell ya if it was just a youtube thing? glad some1 came on here and had the same issue i had,certain people on here think i bitch just to bitch but thats not the case. Last week i was on here saying how good ihra sounded compared to nhratv.

At the IHRA party last Thursday,I met the guy who owns the production company that does IHRA races. Thanked him for great shows. Closest camera work to Dean Papadeas Main Event videos. Maybe Fox should find those cameras.

Appreciate the kind words. And just for the record, Terry Vance. Byron Hines.

I watched the YouTube feed and I did have a sound issue. During some of Galvin's starting line/staging lane stuff I could not hear the person he was interviewing at all. Jon-O and Rob Flynn come to mind.

I had to turn the volume way up to hear those 2

This axle issue on Schumacher’s car has progressed to VERY STRANGE.

I’m not the only one thinking this, but……sabotage? Never, ever, has this been an issue and why is it just this one car?

No, the crew chiefs are not incompetent.

Somebody will lose their job, though. Maybe multiple people.

Dare I say….the obvious?

Major brain lapse on my part of course I've been close to PSM in Europe and the US for years and still am. On your one-liners, one from PSM sticks in my mind. Chase van Sant is on the starting line - "his initials are CVS so his time slip is four'n a half feet long" delivered in a casual as-a-matter-of fact tone. Could be only me of course but I thought that was funny. Good comedic timing too, it took a .2 RT to get the joke.

Agree on the humor - that is hysterical!

Tony Shu just broke another rear end. Scrubbers are out even with the diaper.

Only for 53 minutes

The diaper is primarily there to prevent pieces from flying into the stands. It isn’t going to prevent all of the oil from escaping.

There is a reason it’s called a blanket and not a diaper. Due to components like the anti-rotation device and other things, there are holes in the blanket that prevent it from being a good ‘diaper’. It will contain some fluid, and it does a good job of not letting it spray all over the place, but can’t contain it all.

Alan and Bob Frey are great at effortlessly slipping non-racing gems in their commentary that really keep your attention. In short, they make it fun!
