Okay Scott, was that smirk a pick on me for having closer to 600 miles less to travel than you do? If so, then hah hah bud. However, you have to remember your car is much closer to running .9 under your index (circa Sonoma 2017) than mine is (Pomona 2016).

I won't make such a trip (on my more meager budget), to just make qualifying and class run(s). I want to have a valid shot at the final qualified field of 128. Moreover, your racing budget is broader than mine too (for now).

Since Stock (as of 12:45am pst), has 161 entries this year instead of 169 from last year, it might not take a run like Ben Wenzel's -0.893 under index to qualify this year. On the other hand Tibor Kadar, BJ Graham, you and Mike (plus improvements from last years non-qualified field numbers), will likely raise the bar to where a -0.92? may be needed to be 128th this year????

Good luck, and safe travels bud....
