To me, what's unusual about this, is the Spokane track is 45 mins. away tops, towing over from Couer D Alene.... SLC, UT is 12 Hours away!
With a first round bye, Paul hit a .000" light... lets hope you go a couple more rounds to make those miles really pay off.
Congrats!!

Thank you Larry, I did my level best to do our hometown of Great Falls, MT proud with the nostalgia Buick stocker but went red 2nd round - this car is a little different creature than my slower C/SA combination and I am still getting used to the thing. Great news is that uncle Stew Rose was helping me all week-end and he finally got to see his old silver Buick be one of the fast cars at a national event. He had a shot back in 1975 at the winter nationals when he ran the car in Superstock, but lit the tires up on the hit and that was it!
Take Care,
Paul "Jody" Plummer
