Dan you are 100% correct.

Warren Evans does a great job and deserves all the credit.

Randy, I wasn't there so not sure. I would guess either broke or didn't hear the call. Hope someone that was there can fill us in.

It was a double header, so I don't think there was any problems in race 2. Don't know for sure.

I was the third par of the designated three pair in the first race of the double header. All of the last three cars on the ladder were broke according to the staging men. The other cars in the first three pairs that were present were Johnny Dekema (sp?) and Austin Williams.

I assure you that I don't try to be in the first three pair as I qualify all out in bracket mode. I can't speak for the others. Although, I don't mind being in the first three pair as I always come to race and not wait to the last minute. My wife is always saying "how come you have to go up first all the time".
