That was my first-ever elimination round of Stock, and dad caught it on camera. Wasn't running the index in qualifying, then Rusty Canfield gave us some tuneup tips, and it picked up about .12 or so!

Re: Big wheelies?
I found that one last night too, but I was looking for another all motor car, I believe Scott Kelley that did the same thing. I searched about every forum I am, for 20 mins an couldn't find it! That never happens!
