Now
it's Saturday, June 12th, 2010. When we
arrived at the track Top Fuel Dragsters and Funny Cars were
already in the lanes for their 1st Qualifying session of
the day. |

The
funny cars of Jack Beckman and Cruz
Pedregon in the lanes. |

Here's
Jeff Arend in the DHL
TF/FC. It's gotta be tough on him getting into Scott's old
car. |
|
|
During
a break in the action we went to the Pro Mod pits; this
is Chip King's Daytona |
And
this is Chip. Couple of kindred Mopar spirits. |
|
|
Just
your average street-driven '63 Corvette. |
In
the Pro Mod pits we met up with Barbara Troxel,
dog Kota... |
|
|
...and
Melanie Troxel. This was a real treat for
both me... |
...and
Stephanie. We're both big fans or Melanie and TJ,
Jr. Melanie's just as nice in person as she appears
in interviews. |

Back
on the other side of the track, this is Jeff Arend
folding his chutes after his pass. Just a suggestion: if
you're at the track and you see one of the drivers folding
his or her chutes, stand back give them some room. I saw
people practically walking over Jeff and almost tripping
over the chute's lines as he was trying to do one of the
most critical jobs of the day.
