Mackey ran another 10 something at like 90 mph...I wonder what he is up to or if he has a problem...normally in open comp you try to run .05 over what you can really run...they then index you and you have the sluff of .05 to run under and not break out...hmmmm...

Mack is fine. Too quick for his et capability so he is adjusting.
We have had a 2 hour and change rain delay. Just told bracket cars to stand by so we will be racing soon.

Just got past round 1. Had to take out one of our own. Bobby Barrick (2009 champ) in a 2010 Grand Sport.
double break out. .011 mov.
Next round I face Al Corda again
2nd and third in points won as well. So far I have lost points as both out-qualified me. Ahead of second by an even 400 (4 rounds) right now.

Dan, i was warned/scowled going through tech about just how fast i would be allowed to go. Some how they knew me and my car. I was indexed at 10.17 with the .10 run under so 10.07 and I qualified #2 with .002 light....so i catch then before the 1000' put a bumper on them and ride with them threw the traps. Not the easiest way to race but it was alot of fun.....
