Agreed; can't wait for this one! I hope Pocono will be almost (well, I won't be there :P) as good.

Dang, SM is all over ITA. Is that on Toyo's or Hoosiers?

[StephenB]

Nick was running the Toyos. But I'm not suprised at the spead... it is Nick and he is one of the best with a great Flatout car!!

I don't have the results but I think Julie M. had third in ITB with Berens old car with a 120.6ish (His 4 door golf)

I had a pretty bad qualifying session but I had 2 laps in the 120.4 range and that was good enough to get first. I think tomorrow will be great with the top 4 ITB cars within a second and I would suspect that Greg will get that Suzuki flying. (I didn't get a chance to talk to him today, I know he came in early in the STU qualifying. I am sure he will be fast by tomorrow!)

Here is a link to a video from today’s qualifying session from a hood mounted VHOLDR camera (Not the new CountorHD) The first session I was breaking in some new Hoosiers (and had the 2 good laps) The second part of the session was with heat cycled Hoosiers that I planned on pushing a bit harder! Notice that I said planned… I promptly ran out of gas and came in after just a few laps. The driving IMHO was terrible as I worked out the winter gremlins and got scared because my Dad was on track watching me! Weird feeling with him following me then blowing past me!

Thanks for posting - it's killing me that my car isn't done and I've yet to hit the track!!!!

And....Buehler...?

Unfortunately, the 1.3L of awesome fury sheared the flywheel bolts of the Suzuki in lap 3 of the Pro-IT qualifying. I didn't 'come in early' in qualifying, I had to park it at the top of T6 and watch all you rat bastards flying by for a half-hour before I got a flat-tow back... ;)

The field was strong and interesting. I'm sure it was a HELL of a good event!

Details! Details!
