How about that Polhill?

CycloneFE · 09-06-2010, 11:29 AM

Is he going all the way? What do you think his chances are?

I sure hope that Steve makes a good show(it's already quite amazing) if you cut a great light and run your number you should be in the final doesn't matter who you're running, just imagine the wait from a c/sa car against him, probably unbearable(can you say red light). Go Steve. Claude

I have seen him beat a few 9 second cars.. it really pissed them off.. he usually trees them and runs the number

Too bad.. a win is a win no matter how fast or slow you go..

That round was the first tail wind we had all week.Don't know if that was it or not.Tailwind affects us low HP cars more.

Thanks Guys

I can't say i'm not disapointed about the 5th round loss. I was really ticked when I saw that I had tree'd him by 5 hun.

Car picked up a ton for no real reason. Funny thing is I had just got done telling someone in the lanes, How Predictible the car had been all week, and BAM. I should have backed up into him more than I did. Never really expected the car to pick up as much as it did. That last pass was flirting with the magic 1.25 under number.

Ohh Well As John Force would say. The old Heap was truckin, and over all it was a good outing for the Polhill Racing Innovations Ford Escort.

I've been watching him since class eliminations. I hope he wins and saves some of his winnings for buying a few rounds at the PRI SHOW this year.

He had a great.028 light but took too much stripe..

Looks like lots of cars are breaking out.. the air must be really different today down there..
