Sorenson 1.408 under at Boise

Nitro Joe Jackson · 05-02-2009, 08:36 AM

This is what i had from the Vegas race
A/SA 11.58* 10.287 -1.293 6633 Joe Sorensen 69 Camaro 1969 Chevy 427 425 425 Q VEGAS NATS 1

Bob Shaw · 05-02-2009, 08:50 AM

I am a little confused. If he ran 10.159 on a 11.55 index isn't that only 1.391 under?

Bob, I "ASSUME" the run that was to light and did not count towards Q was a 10.148. Anyone know for sure?

As of this moment there are two Q3 lists on DRC. The one posted at 5:54 PM shows -10.148 while the one posted at 6:18 PM shows -1.159. Things must have been happening pretty fast during those "24" minutes. Jack Bauer must have been on the job? (Apologies to Kiefer Sutherland)

I have a copy of the 5:54 pm run sheet from DRC showing the 10.148 run. You know my sources are reliable and you probably know who they are. Looks like NHRA is trying to cover this up. To many people witnessed the water draining incidentincluding the scale operator. I am going to try to post the run sheet from DRC. I am not real good with the computer so we will see if I can do it.

This thread sounds like a political debate.No body wants to answer the question.It's more like
American Idol,a popularity contest.
I wasn't there but it seems like alot of people saw them drop the water from the car,which by the laws of physics means lightening the car.If that isn't a rules infraction then Tom Compton is the second coming of Christ.
Doesn't anyone in this sport with a name ever do anything wrong????????????????????????????????

The run did not count. The 427's are safe

Are you sure he is running the 427???

The whole picture became a lot clearer to me when I found the two Q3 sheets on DRC. Wish I'd found them both before I wasted twenty minutes trying to figure out how it all went down. They show the sequence of events. I have no further questions or comments. All that is left to do is see how it plays out.
