Anyone know what happens if I miss the first qualifying run Friday ?

GPS says 22 hrs....from now.....so with 2 more hrs time change, it still puts me a hair off.

Anyone know ?

Just drive non-stop...why sleep???

Sounds like there will be one round of qualifying and then into class for the second and final round of qualifying.

I'm sure glad Chris got himself a PR agent. I can already see you're a better speller than him.LOL

We'll see you tomorrow afternoon,hopefully.

Thank you for noticing my immaculate spelling. I take pride in proofreading & Chris actually looked at me with confusion when I said I was proofreading before posting. LOL I'm manning the computer situations while he drives full speed ahead singing the Flash theme song. I'm also occasionally beating him with whatever I can find to keep him awake. It's the small joys in life really...

Hey, here's an idea to help this poor fellow out, does anyone in the great state of Texas wanna tag along and help drive? Maybe he'll move some of his out of control backseat situation so he can sit back there and take a nap! (really, the back seat is out of control)

I'm glad everyone is wishing them GOOD luck. They do in fact need it, and I think if things don't start going more smoothly around here I might throw myself out of the truck. LOL

Do you know what time the second round of qualifying will be? Do we need to run the first to be able to run the second in class? I don't know that we can get teched and fueled by 8...

Well I'm from the great state of Texas and I'm in if you'll pay for my flight back to texas. Use a cattle prod to keep him awake, trust me it works. To run the race you have to tech the car in, then make a qualifying run. Sounds like the schedule is saying one round of qual. then straight into class. The first round of class will count towards qualifying, so if you can tech and make it by first round of class, your in. If you miss first round of class there is no way to make it on the qual. sheet and your out, thanks for coming. Good luck to ya'll, n keep plenty of redbull and yellowjackets on hand!

Go to the NHRA site...click on the schedules button...go to Full Throttle series and click...go down to the Las Vegas national event and click on run schedule...looks like you guys have til around noon to park, tech and get ready.

[GTX JOHN]

My understanding is that first round in class counts for qualifying ..... often we do not run the qualifying pass but use class eliminations for qualifying. Be sure weight and fuel are OK prior to run. We will leave the lights on for you guys.

Be careful and watch your speed...alot of 5 & 10 mph over speed limit tickets starting to be handed out in states that got funding cut and need the money. Truckers ought to be able to help you out getting through the bad areas. Good Luck.....

Good luck guys/gal!

Aren't you just put on the bottom of the ladder if you don't make a qualifying pass and the field isn't full? It worked for me several years ago.
