Yes, I found this same article on the team Jegs site and a few others, but couldn't find a complete list. I guess we'll find out tomorrow when they post the Jegs qualifying sheets.

Well it has been a great day here in Joliet. It was a little warm and humid earlier in the day, but it has cooled off tonight and is a little windy. We have seen lots of people we haven't seen in a while. It has probably been at least 10 years since we had seen Merrill and Donna Schrimsher. It was great seeing them again.

We saw Troy Olsenawski this afternoon. He is the Divsion 6 Rep for Super Stock. I will get some pics tomorrow. He was the first person we met in Seattle last year and one of the friendliest.

As far as which engine Sorenson has in, they only build fast ones. I think he is in B/SA. It should be interesting with him and Slate Cummings both in B/SA. Chad Loge is in C/SA. Tommy Mattingly is in K/SA. Merrill is in H/SA. I have not seen Wydarski or Supka yet.

The weather is supposed to be beautiful with no rain until Sunday. Sportsmen are supposed to get 3 qualifying runs, then stock and super stock both get another one on Friday, then run Round 1 on Friday afternoon.

Hopefully I will get some more pics tomorrow. We have a pretty good connection here, so I will try to keep you up to date. Super Street leads off in the morning at 9.

It is night-night time after our late night last night.
More tomorrow.

Hello everyone.
Is there anyone here at the track that knows much about diesel generators?
If so can you please come to Don Duke's pit area and offer up some assistance. Don is pitted right next to us. Floraglow sponsored stacker.
Power Tech GD 8000 generator.

Thanks

Well it is another beautiful day here at the track. Sunny today with a high of 83. Super Street is out in about a half hour, then stock.

More later.

DA 2158' by our guages for the first run. Lots of people on the brakes. About a 6 mph headwind when we ran. More later.
