I understand your point but I'd also have to think that the No. 129 qualifier (actually 33rd guy) had the same gripe back in 1968. |

Well it has been another hot day and very busy one! We got beat in Round 2 of class by Slate Cummings. Very close til the end! 10.30-10.32.
Some interesting choices for the barn tomorrow! Scheitlin and Hagberg, who were both 1st round runner-ups! That is all that I have heard about so far. |

I remember when Chrysler had the 'pre' Nationals at Milan back in the early 70's(might have been 1970), deciding who would be class winners in advance so no records would not be hit at Indy. This stuff has being going on for years, part of the game. At least there are some new cars available to race, and a few years from now the kids will inherit these cars. Now if they would just make a few more/other rear wheel drivers that us lower class racers could build. Thanks for the reporting Kevin (and all you others too), great job.

You're probably right, but were the new cars exempt from receiving HP based on their performance at Indy in 1968? I believe that's what James was referring to in the last part of his message. Quote:
I'm sure Mr. Summers wouldn't mind if he could run in a Factory Stock 2 Barrel Showdown this year and save some HP for next year. |
