To stir the pot some more, think about this.

Joe never goes this fast at Nationals where there is class. At Vegas in A/SA he went 10.28 in class, McClanahan also went 10.28 running someone else. Does this mean McClanahan can go 9.60's in AA also. Isn't class supposed to be the place to show what you have. Vegas is a factored track, so getting hp is most likely not going to happen.

I noticed that he went a 10.41 in the eliminator at Woodburn, wow 8 tenths slower, I guess he is running on a two barrel for the eliminator or he put a ton of weight in the car, must have a welder with him, because we all know that much weight has to be permanent. I know Joe would not do anything against the rules.

Joe can pick his car up at will, any time any place. Not the usual 1 to 2 tenths or the usual 3 to 4 tenths the top drivers do at a race, he can pick up 8 tenths.

Were is the naysayer on here when it comes to running your car all out, and people are worried about the new CJ's sandbagging. No one should be crying now, the Chevy's can run what they want at will.

I think Joe has two engines, one for the nats and one for div, opens and records. We all know how easy it is to get through tech for records, and how tough it can be at nationals sometimes. I think if he went to Indy, and I have seen him run Indy in the past. If Joe went out and put a number down it would give more clout to the record.

With all this being said, I will give him credit for getting that 9.61 in AA through tech, he is the master.

Anybody know what his mph was?
