Toby,

Are the car counts on the run sheets pre-entered vehicles or actual cars on the ground as of today? 64 cars in Stock and 28 in Comp!

Looking forward to another great series of reports and videos! Many thanks!

There are only 2 lanes, a third pass would just confuse the issue......................
Actually, most who are there ran last weekend where we recieved 4 time trials. By the 4th pass, the entire super gas field went dead on and .400.

Lew,

Yes, the car counts listed on the run sheets are from pre-entered vehicles. Actual counts will probably be a little less.

Thanks a lot for the kind words. Hope I can get some good video tomorrow. I don't know if they will let me into the reserved section of the stands or not. I might have to do it from the sportsman section or behind the line.

My apologies Ed. I forgot, pay more and get less Looks like that is what NHRA is getting, charge more and get less cars. Unfortunately, that's probably how they want it.

Nothing posted on DRC yet, but if you look on live timing under Stock qualifying--looks like Jimmy DeFrank is # 1 @ -1.003 under.

Two rounds of qualifying? That's it? Is this another "enhancement"? Jim

sscrewcheif · 04-01-2011, 04:38 PM

any idea what happened to Chuck Stubeck on his Q1 attempt?

Toby Lang · 04-01-2011, 05:40 PM

Sorry, my internet service is practically nonexistent. I'm sure it's due to all the fans using their Sprint phones. It doesn't get much slower than this. I've been trying to upload the Super Stock Q1 video, but I've only got 3 megs uploaded in the last two hours.

Chuck Stubeck was most likely DQed for fuel. Could be weight, but I doubt it. On the video I took I have him going 9.91 at 132 MPH.
