Meissner Chev-Olds Atco Raceway National Open       Atco, NJ  April 19-20-21, 2002

Sunday, Started with round #2, first thing in the morning.  Just finished the event less than 1 hour before the rain began to fall.  If we did not start first round on Saturday, I doubt we would have put this race in the books.

Saturday, we opened the gates under cloudy sky's and a threat of rain.  Two time trials and the second Comp Qualifying session took place.  We then made a decision to begin first round of all eliminators in an attempt to beat the Sunday chance of rain.  Finished first round of all classes, second round tomorrow at 9 am.

Friday conditions were very good, but again a little to warm for most of the record attempts.  Three records we set in Super Stock, none in Stock.

Thursday found a very Hot Atco Raceway.  Due to the hot weather, performance was not up to the fantastic performances we were hoping for.
