Definitely more SS/AH cars will get in against the 9.60 index; but, of those that do, how many will choose to run in Super Stock eliminations?

I'm going with Dave on this one. I think it's going to take at least .905 under. Take a good look at the cars that are entered. Not to many I can point at that can't go that fast. What ever it is I hope I'm one of them. I had two left feet last year. Still made it in but it wasn't pretty. I don't see Joe DeMarzo on the list!! BP

Understand Bill, think the question is how far under is #128. With breakage, people getting tossed at the barn and the AH folks just there for the Hemi deal seems I recall #137 getting in but bears some research. Can bet Hemi guys like Comella, Howes, etc are there for the full meal deal.

Greatly depends on the weather there. The long range says slightly cooler than the norm. I'm going with .92 under. What the heck.

i think 91 or 92 pending the air,and Hemi;s in SS, 9.60 index, 3/4 of all the hemi's should run 80 or 90 under that index, but again there is only a hand full that can make first rd. if they go rds in the shoot out. lol
