Congrats Dave on top Qualifier in Gasser. Looks like my cars are slowing a little and the rest are getting faster, it will be some close racing to come. The DR1 STR Camaro is giving everything it's got to try and hang on. It definitely did its best. That is the fastest 6ohm dr1 I have ever seen. Bad to the bone right there. |

Round 4 and what a race it's been so far. 1st pair up is your number 1 qualifier in swiftkart and his mean Ferrari next to him sits RR racin Rob your number 4 qualifier in casper. This car has been anything but friendly to the competition today. They are staged and ready. Let's get down to business.  Casper has the starting line advantage. He's out to the 60' and the 660' could the number 4 upset the number 1?  This is a nail biter of a race here it could go either way. At the finish its going to be Swiftkart. He had the speed advantage here and drove around casper.  This was a photo finish race here. Neck and neck. .0058 win margin!  Next pair up is pennywize619 in big bird your number 2 qualifier and in the next lane sits Dave632 in the ghost white 55 your number 6 qualifier. They are belted in burnouts are complete and they are ready to go.  Starting line advantage goes to Dave632 and he's 1st to the 60' but big bird takes the lead at the 660' mark. Dave632 I see your admirer looking on.  Running to the finish its a toss up. These cars are flat out moving. At the stripe it's going to be pennywize619 in big bird taking the win light.  It's a good thing pennywize installed that scramble button because he needed it on that one.  That brings us to the final race in inline super stock. We will have your number 1 qualifier in swiftkart and next to him the number 2 qualifier in pennywize619. We are going to drag the track and we will be right back with the finals. |

Here we are the finals! Your number 1 and 2 qualifiers are ready to dance. They have the cars warmed up and bring them to the line. After a day full of orange cars it comes down to 2 yellow machines. Swiftkart in the lean mean Ferrari machine and pennywize619 in big bird. They stage the cars and come up on the 2 step. Let the dance begin!  Starting line advantage swiftkart but look out big bird takes the 60' and the 660'  These cars are glued! All I see is 1 yellow blur running down the track. Going into the trap they are tied. But there has to be a winner and it's going to be swiftkart!  Folks this is as tight as it's gets look at the win margin. 0005! We saved the best for last and both drivers let it all hang out! Notice all the explanation marks! This was a edge of your set final round! Actually I don't think anyone was sitting for this everyone was on their feet!  Big congratulations to swiftkart your 2023 Halloween race inline super stock champion!  Look at the crowd cheer or at least I think that's what that creepy clown is doing. Again congratulations swiftkart what a race. |

Congratulations Swiftkart and Pennywise619 🏆
Adam Excellent Coverage, nice to see the boards and the photos of the cars at there different areas while Racing,like starting line and 60 how some cars just pickup at the end and pull the Win 🏆 🤔 and if the track was longer even these 6 ohm cars would get some great mph.
Thanks again for a Great IT'S Drag Event.

Good morning race fans! We are getting things underway here at ITs raceway. It's a little cool this morning so while we run the jet down the track to warm things up we figured we go over the 3 and 4 gear list standings. As you can see there has been some movement already. We had a few body changes and a few no shows. The last ride hearse was unable to make the event. I hear you. How at the Halloween race is the hearse not there? Well let's just say he had a job to do. It is replaced by the dark angel fighter plane inspired 55 chevy. Gnome is sporting a new American grey 56 Ford wagon. Ecbill comes in in the Crusher II camaro. On the 3 gear side pennywize619 is in a new 55 chevy. Pete rolls in in his wife's mustang? I wonder if she knows. Take a look at the Shark Pool. We have enough to start another list there alone. Buckle up folks this is going to be a wild ride.  |

The left side of the ladder for round 1 is complete. Let's take a look at the action so far. 1st pair up is number 16 qualifier Gnome in the Georgia shaker taking on the number 17 qualifier Comet in the elco. Is it a truck or a car? Who knows but this should be a good match up. They stage and wait on the light.  Slight advantage to Comet on the hit and he carries that to half track.  The Georgia shaker is right on his bumper. Looking to make up a little ground. To the finish and it's going to be Comet with the win.  Comet really turned it up and ran his best et of the event.  Next pair in the water box is RR Racin Rob and Crazynski. These races continue the trend of orange with RR in the flaming willys and Crazynski in the pumpkin Chevelle. They stage and here we go.  Starting line advantage Crazynski but he can't hold it and RR pulls around him at the half.  To the finish and this one goes to RR Racin Rob in the flaming willys.  Crazynski looked to have some traction issues. I'm not sure if his BUG got him in the right spot.  Next pair brings pennywize619 in terminal velocity and Comet in ambush. A pair of beautiful blown Belairs. Burnouts and dry hops complete they are locked in.  Pennywize619 takes the hit and Comet goes up in smoke. Can he recover?  Comet is all over the track and pennywize619 takes this one.  Looks like maybe the turbo pennywize and skillet installed in Comets car was a little much. Comet was so out of shape he was sideways in the shutdown.  Next pair Pete in the road runner and Smokinvinnie in ol 76. There is some good old American muscle sitting in the lights.  Starting line advantage Smokinvinnie and he pulls that to the 60 but here comes that mopar power at half track.  . To the big end it's going to be Pete taking the win. Smokinvinnie gave it everything he had.  He just didn't have enough today and Pete takes the win.  Final pair on this side of the ladder brings in Pete in his beautiful black Torino and Gramps Ratz in the Gramps garage gasser. Gramps does a couple of dry hops Pete said he don't need those they stage and here we go.  Pete gets out of the hole first and stays there at the half.  Gramps Ratz isn't out of it yet and he powers down the track trying to catch the torino. The torino isn't have it and Pete takes the win.  Pete does slow and it looks like there might be a fitment issue with a tire rubbing the body. I don't need to tell you that's dangerous.  That does it for the left side of the ladder. Stay in your seats as we bring you the right side coming up next. |
