Thread: qualifying

I'm settin' here watching the pros qualify and I'm amazed that the professor just ain't gettin' after it, qualified like 18th I think.. and Mike Edwards is in trouble too!

I think he needs to consult with Kurt's crew, as they usually seem to run a little quicker.

Is WJ still doing all the top secret experimental development stuff??? I know for a couple years there he was, just wondering if he's back to working on all the sneaky stuff that eventually make Kurt go so dang fast??????

I know that Warren has always been responsible for the horsepower they have. I did hear a commentator a while back, who said the big difference between the cars was the tuning and setup. That is what I meant by consulting with Kurts crew.

It used to be Kurt's car that was always testin' stuff. Maybe Warren just doesn't care if he loses now? Yes, that's SARCASM! HAH!

I think Schumacher likes 4 wide racing, he ran a 330 mph pass first round.............

Got to wonder if Team Al Anabi is on the phone with Larry Dixon yet, both cars out in the first round again.................

What I read recently is many of the Pro stock engines are lease deals.They are installed trackside and tuned by the engine shop trackside as well.After the event the engines are taken back out trackside to in part protect the R & D.

I watched the racin' and still haven't decided if I like the 4 wide deal. But, it was great to watch a new record run, 332.55 I believe it was! WOW....

And they went to 1000 ft to keep the speeds down!

That was the backup run also! The original run was 334 I think. Simply Amazing!

I liked the interview with Greg Anderson, "I guess I like 4 wide racing, I won two years in a row".

and how about Robert Hight, 4 Funny car wins in a row, last one that did that was his boss a dozen or so years ago!!!!

Yeah, Anderson.. that was to funny! I was also wondering how many drivers would have the cahonies to repeat how much they hate this track, but.. oddly enough.. not one driver would speak his mind! HMmmmm.. you'd think Bill France was running this show!

Yes, and congrats should go to Hight! Not my favorite driver but you cannot argue with his success! That team is on fire! And Force made the semifinals again so he's doing alright too.
