Other than a little lap counting issue in the first round, I thought everything went pretty smoothly. I would really like to see the heads up qualifying go to IFMAR style qualifying. I think it would make for faster qual. times and less turn 1 & 2 disasters that could ruin a qual run for someone. Just a suggestion.
19t in 2 weeks....wooohooo! Bring out the wings.

JW just a couple of week, I would like to win at 1 or 2 more weeks. You and slaz is running me to hard now. Great racing last night. GOOOO Nastruck.
Way to go Tod/LE good run 56 laps. And thanks for all the help!!!

I hear you on that Dan. This way NOBODY cries :cry: thier being heald up when you are racing the clock. Heads up qualifing you have to block, every spot counts. 19 turn in 2 weeks looks real good. I'm building my hammers as we speak...
