Gorgeous, Ahhhhh it's a Pontiac. I'll probably just wait until we get to to Norwalk to put it all back together. Then I can waste you with a fresh set up. Naaah nah naaah nah naaah nah.

Don't think so...and if you're in the footbrake class it's going to take 6 or 7 rounds just to get to the 1/4 finals...maybe more.

Dumb question. Based on the formula for weight to cube... that includes total weight of car with driver?

Normal takes 5 round wins to get to 1/4's but they start paying back at 32's (3 round wins) which is nice.

Probably doesn't matter.
Also the winner will be in the King of the Track race.

You have to know Rick.
He enters every class, S Pro, Pro, Street if they allowed slicks.
If he could have 2 numbers - odd and even - he would so he could race in the Pro class twice!

I'm trippin over how many fast cars there are coming from every direction. I think this years race is going to be the best ever with some extremely fast cars. Who has the list of what the Q16 line up was last year and lets see if we can get a bump spot just for fun. I'm seriously thinking my 8.54 bump from last year is going to be moved down in the very low 8's.

What I'm really trying to do is figure out if I'm gonna be in the game. I already know what I have to do to spank that blue and white Nova

Scott, how does it feel to have the fastest Pontiac ?

Me..............I'd rather be BROKEN, at lest I would have the Money to pay my bills. I'd just be waiting on my car to get fixed as opposed to not having any money and not being able to go racing or pay my Bills!

Thank God I'm nether one "RIGHT NOW"!
