Updated news from race officials is that those classes which had qualifying on tomorrow's running order will still have those
sessions. All others will go into eliminations, with the exception of Comp Eliminator which will have one more qualifying session
in the morning.
Today's gallery has now been posted, 260 pictures courtesy of Callum, Kirstie and Diana to whom thanks. You can check out
the gallery via the Event Index page.
Finally for today: those of you who have heard the apology story/rumour: it is untrue, no apology was offered, so no reason to
spread the story any further. Thank you.
Tune back in the morning and we'll bring you all the day two news.
16:30
We have been called for the day. Super Gas Q2 will be annulled.

Good morning from Santa Pod Raceway for our coverage of the Springspeed Nationals brought
to you in association with John Woolfe Racing. It's a nice day here,
cloudless with a right-to-left crosswind.
Today's plan is for a real-time reports and results throughout the day, and then a gallery
at the end of the day. Simon will be here posting pit notes tomorrow. Julian is away at a VW event this weekend so Callum
has stepped in to photograph for the weekend, welcome and thanks to him. As things stand Your Reporter is commentating as well as writing the
race report so some of the reportage may be less detailed than usual but he will do his best.
No webcast from us this weekend, Santa Pod Raceway are streaming the event on YouTube Live and Facebook; you can find a
link to the YouTube on the Event Index. Please note that the YouTube page will not, of course, show the live broadcast until
it commences so just keep gitting Refresh. In the same way that we would not expect Santa Pod to entertain queries
or comments about our own webcasts, we won't respond to queries or comments about SPR's webcast.
A big Good Morning to the Eurodragsterholics, especially Kai Plathan and the faithful Otto in Vehkataipale, Finland, and
Ivar Kolberg who is tuned in from Norway.
We are due to start at 09:30 with Q1 of Modurstang Pro ET; stay tuned and as soon as the wheels start to turn we'll be
here with all the news.
