appears to be ten NSS cars here by my count:
Dallas 65 Coronet
I 63 Plymouth
Doug Duell 64 Wagon
Barry 66 Biscayne
DW Thunderbolt
Poskevitch 66 Fairlaine
Vise 66 Custom 500
The Kid with the Hookin Hooser -- in a 65 Coronet as motor bad in Barracuda
A local in a Black 67 GTA
there must be some one else but I'm having a brain fart as to who
TT in about an hour and were suppose to go two rounds of Qualifying today
The place is swarming with Mustangs as this is a NMRA race too. Lots of 12-second cars that need to be towed everywhere.
This is also suppose to be a LSX weekend, and brackets.

We got one Time Trial -- and I spun bad for a 11.19. My first half sucked but the second half was good.  The weather is bad here. I spun again in my 1st qualifying -- but in the show with a 11.09 after taking 20 pounds out. The below is qualifying first round.  I took 80 out of the car for the next qualifying, but I don't think we'll get our 2nd qualifying in today. A big storm is overdue. They were to do third qualifying in the morning without a time trial -- and then two rounds of eliminations. They have NMRA, NMCA, LSX, TS, and the brackets -- a lot of brackets. Last time in Atlanta, the brackets had 7 hours between the first and second round of NSS. |

Dave you are making me feel better about having to miss this one. Sounds like a mess I don't need to be apart of with the rain coming because that will screw it all.

Were already two hours behind the first cars going down the track. They have to still run the four Pro thug classes from last night. They just called the LSX classes for time trials to use them to put some heat on the track and maybe dry a little. I've got a bad feeling that we might not get our 3rd qualifying as eliminations are suppose to start in 2 hours. I need another crack at qualifying as one TT and two qualifying wasn't enough to get dialed in with all of the weather changes. Right now it is cold and a strong head wind.

Shortly after starting there was a wreck with a lot of liquid for a long way. Clean has been going on for an hour and just now the first car went down the track. There about 5 hours behind schedule so I'm betting well go right to eliminations and not have Q3

Last Qualifying. Big head wind!  No Eliminations today. Too many wrecks and oil downs. The Beer Light is on |

This is the third qualifying, but I know for a fact they have Barry and Sander's wrong.   Naturally -- I draw the #1 Qualifier. Might as well be the #15 and go up against the #7 than the #9 getting the #1 |

"Naturally -- I draw the #1 Qualifier. Might as well be the #15 and go up against the #7 than the #9 getting the #1 "
I would think dw ( #7) is as tough as anyone? but brian merick is one of the best too....
I think all of the nss drivers are tough, no ducks out there.
nss qualifying, this my opinion, only point in going for #1 is for a first rd. bye. some one could qualify with a .99 or .49 and be last, that's the car to look out for.

No doubt about it -- 16 tough racers in the ladder, no ducks. My point is that I just don't understand Sportman's ladders. I know it is done more for parity than reward for qualifying. |
