Again guys, thanks for the kind words. I have to say Doug is doing a great job with his photos, as you can see his stuff puts mine to shame.

Good morning everyone, the weather is not as cool as it was for Stock this morning. I don't see anyone picking up with crazy numbers expect for those who were holding back for round one of class. Temperature right now is 69. The just called Super Stock to the lanes.

I hope to have photos and names for Stock tear down later today.


Some more Stock photos.....

I seriously have to question a selection process that picks a car qualified # 126 to show me a piston and rod. It's a fine car and runs well but it's not even on my radar. When one car and combination outshines other cars of the same combination by two or three tenths --- that's the one I want to see and I'm sure the eliminated racers that feel they have left no stone unturned are more than a little curious too. On the flip side of that , when you're that fast guy that gets picked and passes tear down , what a great feeling it has to be to know all the naysayers are saying "well I'll be damned"

Re: "Live From" US Nationals Indy 2019
 

I would have to agree.. Unless there are 10 of the exact same combo and one happens to be .3 faster than the rest and still ends up #126 I don't see any purpose to that man being torn down with so many others deserving it more.. I get even some of the non qualified cars could be cheating, but most of us aren't concerned with the guy the can't get in currently... we want to see the guys that are absolutely killing it prove they are in fact legal..


Also, what came of this "Cylinder head scanner"? seemed to be a lot of theories as to what its purpose would be and haven't heard anything about it even being on site.

I guessing the Black Cobra Jet is Ronzello or Downing? Not familiar enough with their cars to know.. But Bongiovanni I believe is red and white... no?

Re: "Live From" US Nationals Indy 2019
 

I believe that is Don Carson.

Re: "Live From" US Nationals Indy 2019
 

Ronzello is driving a white hardtop CJ this year.

So not one but two of the first six in the barn are from the bottom 8 qualifiers if this guess is correct.. neither one even being a finalist in their respective class... seems productive...
