I will try to get ahold of seats for the weekend, especially Sunday. Your car is perfect for what they want on the show though, hopefully you'll make the 16.  |

Yup. Everybody makes qualifying runs, they pick 16 cars running close times (usually low 11's to high 10's) and run them head-to-head elimination. Winner gets 10G's cash, and 7G's in tools. |

im workin on suspension. Right now it either hooks and runs good or it shakes the tires loose on launch. Im ditching the lakewood bars and thinking about going with spohn LCAs and Torque arm. Also I installed air bags in the front for weight transfer but I think I am going to take those out in favor of some good ol trick springs (the air bleeds off all the time and makes for a pain in the @ss) and a set of tubular control arms with 90/10s.......... I have had a set of billet specialties street lites just sitting in the garage because I didn't know if I really wanted to transfer to a full slick but I think I will. Those things done should help net me a little better et and make the car alot more consistant! Im hoping it least!........ The wife is on board with everything so this helps! (shes like..... "you gotta get your stuff on that car and get it ready!"....... ) _________________

| How long do you think it would take for them to put that on TV? They compress an entire night of racing down to a 30 minute show, so I bet it takes a while. |

My woman just reminded me that we're getting married in Aug. Does that make me a terrible man for momentarily forgetting?  |
