Tjet Super Stock Round 2.
Race 7 Swiftkart vs Pennywize Pennywize has a tall task going against the fast #1 VW bug. He runs his number but so does Swiftkart and easily turns on the win light. .7349et to .8987et.
Race 8 Skillet vs Gnome Does Gnome's Willys have enough to get by the #2 Qualifier? We will never know because he spins the crown gear at the hit and watches the Camaro's taillights get smaller. Skillet .8036et to 1.3333et.
Race 9 Chriskingsley vs Kstocks Kstocks Mustang gets the holeshot but slows slightly while the Chevelle is getting quicker and passes the Mustang mid track. Chris sends Kstocks to the trailer .8520et to .8973et.
Race 10 Gnome vs Ecbill Did they find the issue with the Nova? The answer is yes! Was it enough to take down the Cobra? The answer is no. The Cobra is running well and lays down another sub .8 pass to take the win. .7907et to .8720et.

Tjet Super Stock Semi Finals.
Semi Final 1 Swiftkart vs Chriskingsley Chris's Chevelle runs it's best ET in a losing effort. But there is no reason to be bummed. That VW has been running on mean all day long. Swiftkart moves into the Finals .7414et to .8443et.
Semi Final 2 Skillet vs Gnome Skillet has faced off with Gnome two races in a row now. Will he get by the Cobra this time like he did the Willys? Who is going to meet the #1 VW in the Final? Skillet gets the Camaro into the .7's and both cars are tied together all the way through the traps.......but the Cobra pulls it out and takes the win. Gnome comes from the #7 spot to take out #2 and go to the Finals .7812et to .7990et.

Tjet Super Stock Finals.
Gnome has fought his way through the rounds to make it to the Finals. One more pass to go. Can he get it done? Swiftkart has had a pretty easy time of it. Nobody has really challenged him. The Cobra is getting faster though.
Finals Swiftkart vs Gnome Gnome steps it up and closes that ET gap but it still is not enough. Great job by both cars! Swiftkart is top dog today and will take the trophy. VW wins .7355et to .7794et.

OK it's break time for the Racemaster. I've been going at it all day. I need to take care of a couple of things and I will be back after awhile. I wanted to get MM/PS done today too and that might still happen. We will see...... |

OK guys and gals. My apologies but that is going to be all of the racing for today although I will be getting everything ready to run MM/PS first thing tomorrow morning. I will also be getting started much earlier. So thanks for all of the good word. It was a great day of racing and tomorrow is going to be even better with MM/PS and the Kiwi Challenge. I don't like to start a Class and then stop in the middle of it. Some of these cars get faster as they are run and stopping messes that up. So I don't want to get started on something that I cannot finish tonight. So hopefully I will have some stuff posted in time for morning coffee.
