The season opener at the dragway is in the books. The weather was pretty soggy Friday and Saturday not much better with intermittent showers and a little hail for good measure. The surface was eventually ready late afternoon for racers to blow the dust off with a few hours of time trails. Using the new drag, the track actually came-in pretty quick.
Sunday morning brought dry skies with a cool head-wind. There were 118 entries for the weekend with 100 entries making the call for qualifying, 30 Super Pro, 34 Pro, 18 Sportsman, 7 Bike/Sled, 7 Sport Compact and 4 in Junior Dragster. Here are the results:
