Default Re: Anyone live from the Texas Motorplex Double?

I was the one that got DQ’d on a bye run. I had bought some Sunoco Supreme at Grand Prix auto in Tulsa I had it tested before I put it in the tank and it was “right in the middlei”. Bought some Supreme at the track (
The vendor by the gate) and had it tested, it too was right in the middle. When I mixed, the two together it was way off. Both fuels were Sunoco Supreme and both passed check before they were mixed.

That really stinks Derek. On a bye run of all things...

You've really got that Road Runner flying!

I lost a round with Sunoco I bought at the track that day. No mixing. At one time we could not buy VP at the races. Decided to just use Sunoco. Made less power than VP, but was safer than hauling a lot of fuel from home. After Sunoco not passing Fuel Check between rounds during eliminations, twice, I quit using it. Started hauling VP fuel in my trailer.
I did not race in 2018. Was looking after Jeanie.
Can we buy VP at Div 4 races now?

Ed, no vp for sale at D4 races. Like you, I haul vp in the trailer. It's a lot of gas to tote around, especially if you're optimistic about going rounds at a double.

Thank you! Guess I'll just have to haul it. Not as safe, but

For folks wondering about the status of race 2 at Ennis:
Super Stock completed a qualifying session this morning, and a few Super Street pairs went down the track before the rain began. Heavy rain ensued, and remainder of race 2 day 1 was cancelled.

Race 2 eliminations are scheduled to start at 8 a.m. Sunday morning CDT with Stock out of the gate first. There were no qualifying passes in Stock, so the ladder will be filled with random pairings and no heads up runs.

I did not get to race at all in 2018. Was really looking forward to this one.
Close as I've come is with my Practice Tree. Been deadly there. LOL
