No. Paul Jr. missed the online registration. He is working on another way to get in though.

No. I have a schedule conflict. I wish that I could be there. I'm sure that it will be a good time.

Paul Jr. ran 9.93-9.99 but did not get picked. Robbie ran in the 11s (i think) and did get picked but lost in the first round. Maybe one of these guys will chime in and give more details.

Basically they picked the low 11's field because their were supposedly 64 cars within .43 verses the 64 cars in the low 9's separated by .6.

I had to leave early on the first day so I didn't see the 64 car run off but the final 16 got delayed until Sunday. I got wind they chose the low 11's class so I went back Sunday expecting to see street style cars only to be surprised to see all tubbed out drag only cars, a couple blower PTRA cars, three cars with funny car cages with chutes and the rest your stardard older camaros and mopar tin can drag only cars. Pretty lame if you ask me, I'd say maybe 2 out of the 16 were actually a low 11 car running "all out".

My 2006 C6 ran a 9.40-9.41 @ ZMAX. I'm signed up for the Va. Dinwiddie track. A few years ago I met Paul Sr. @ MTI in Marietta Ga. It was a pleasure seeing him again @ ZMAZ and meeting his son for the first time. These guys are the best.
