Weekend Update 

Saturday, May 4th the race was cancelled due to rain. All we did is take our cars out and put them right back in our trailers. Boring!

Sunday May 5th was a beautiful day. Route 66 hosted Top Sportsman and Midwest Super Comp. We also had the pleasure of watching Lisa Coil, wife of Austin Coil, crew chief for John Force and the Chitown Hustler, go for her license in the Drastic Plastic Fuel Altered. 

On this beautiful Sunday we had 23 cars. Round 1 went without a hitch. Everyone was paired up and in line when called. #1 Qualifier was Pat Fitzpatrick with his ’06 Gebhardt dragster.
