Five cars in SS/B and the fast three are Thunderbolts. I am enjoying this.
Certainly the re-learning curve wasn't too steep for Dallas Kelly. I eagerly await the next couple days.

rays got more left, I know he can do better. his low gear looks about as bad on the computer as mine does. the track leaves a little to be desired here.

Paquet @ 8.93 clearly has the lead.
Next three are 9.04 / 9.07 / 9.09 & Bridges @ 9.20.
My AMX buddy Adkins has the 9.09 and he ran the same 1st & 2nd session while everybody else slowed on the 2nd session. 2nd place is still runner up but that looks like the race to watch. Track & clutch could make or break any of those guys. But my hat's off to Paquet; he sure has an advantage going into class runoffs!
Edit: I just noticed Mike Carr's post that the 9.04 was "only" 133 MPH. Ayeya....
And how about the #1 "traditional" SS car being Garett Ghezzi with his SS/MA AMX! Yea, I know, he's only #8 but the rest of the cars from 1-7 are built in this century...

Jimmy Bridges went 9.06 last weekend in Bowling Green. I'm thinking he's got more up his sleeve, for today.

Thumbs up Re: Indy SS/B just got even better

Glad to see Ray win the class. There is not a finer guy at the racetrack than Ray Paquet. A class act of a person on and off the 1320. Congrats to him!
