Seems like the fast eight is not competitive except between the two fastest cars? No chance for # 8 to win unless somebody breaks or runs out

Do they have a dial in? I thought that it was heads up?

This was my 3rd Hemi quick 8 and my 1st where I didn't red light

I was a second faster then last year and was number 8. A lot of 9 second cars and I know 3 regulars that run 9s that were not there

This is why I like index racing. Everyone is evenly matched.

The quick 8 is a bonus. The point of the Hemi shootout is the 3 passes where the top average in the 9,10,11,12,13,14,and 15 classes wins so every body has a chance to win

You also get $100 for losing 1st round in the quick 8

Oh and don't forget, the whole thing is free to the 1st 75 for every race. I made 7 passes total this weekend and won $200

Top 8 should be handicapped to your average. You would get a different winner than someone named J.

 

[Speedy!]

I bet josh sprayed it a bit on that one.

If I could justify his budget I would.

I didn't think that car was that fast on Friday. Are they bolt on wheel flares on the back?

There were 2 white ones. One was much slower than that one.

At MHSH, at VMP, that car was booking down the track. He hit a launch so hard they blew off. Think they are double sides taped on.

So much for 200 mph tape?
