So today was the first day of qualifying and things went well. The 4 wheel drive trackside crew of Scotty, Sarah, and Dust had some issue's in the first round but are getting things figured out. It's pretty late and I'm ready of bed....so I will try to give you more details later but....

They are running qual points, best 2 out of 4 rounds count and you get points for how well you do in each round of qualifying not just againt the guys in your race...but against everyone in that class. In Stock I was 6th overall and not sure about the 2nd (hopefully my throw out) but I think it was probably in the low teens. In 10.5 buggy I got 10th in the first round and 7th in the second round....I'm really pleased with my runs in 10.5.

Dust TQ'd the 2nd round of 10.5 buggy.....great run! and he got a 4 in the 1st round...so he should be a lock for the A-main in 10.5. Sarah is doing well with her truck and had a very good run in the 2nd qualifier of stock buggy. There is a picture below of the motor she is using in 10.5 truck...I guess it is either the only one or one of very few. Scotty and Buck are running well....it's all about running clean laps on this track. You only get about 10 and they are tough to keep clean because of the many jumps.

Here is a link to a few laps with Jared Tebo running his 2nd round 4-wheel drive qualifyer...he is very fast!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEZ7aVhcACI

Time for bed!
