Q1 Enhancement... Yeah, I went up and asked the race director if I could run again when the track dried. He basically said no. All 3 cars ahead of me sizzled the tires and they even stopped and tried to fix the track prior to my run. Anyway, my car did not even move when I left. It was also raining some down track. I tried to explain all this to the race director and he said "what does that have to do with your run". I said "other than trying to launch the car on a pile of dog turd$ and it raining, not much". Don't think he liked that response (lol). To add insult to injury, they anounce for stock to come on back up, but not if you'd already run. A bit later that had people come around and tell you you ran earlier, you could run again...urgh...... Guess I should have stuck the battery charger on earlier.

Here is the first in car of the day, Dan Fletcher in his 69 F/SA Camaro.

My week seems to get worse every day, as you know I spun like many others. They announced we could not run again. Well as you now know, they changed their mind and I did not here an announcement or I missed it, and missed the run.

I'm trying to stay up beat, but its getting tough.

That sucks, Ken. Too bad nobody came over and made sure you heard the announcement. Oh well, it's just another obstacle you'll have to overcome this weekend. We all know you can do it.

Good luck!

Ken, Larry Hill told me he thought that the aluminum center sections were legal in the Shelby's because it was a legal replacement per Carroll Shelby and Ford racing. Have fun this weekend.

I'm sure Frank Teuton was not driving a 97 Ram in AA/SA. I guess that was the V10 DP. Does anybody know why he was DQ'd?
