I made the 32 car field at the Martin MI. Pinks All Out, believe me they had their fair share of sandbaggers. They picked a field of cars between 10.35-10.50. I ran three 10.36's, so on paper I was one of the quicker cars. In reality, I was probably around the middle of the pack. They pick alot of low to mid 10 second fields so lots of guys slow their cars down,thinking thats what they will pick. A guy pitted next to me was running 10.40's on Fri. and Sat. during qualifying, got booted 2nd round of eliminations for going too quick. He was told he ran a 9.94!
