Calling Jim Yates, calling Jim Yates.
Yates was there yesterday but who he was helping out I don't know. Jeg made two pretty clean passes back to back unfortunately he did not pick-up on his second pass as most did...Allen spun the tires quickly and was out of the groove both times. Hopefully he can get it down the track today. Chris Mcgahee(sp?) did not even bother showing up to the event with Mike Edwards first class high dollar operation. His whole season was a joke and I am guessing he is thinking he should of kept his mouth shut about why he made the switch,he may have had more success....Just shows he can't compete in a Dodge or a Chevy.

I just checked, and we are up to 3,4 &6 but EE has .02 on the field.
It may be ugly, but it sure is slow.

AJ was going for his 5th win of the season until his HEMI Dart Pro Stocker tried to rotate the earth and rattled the Goodyears on that final round.

But weren't many of the other Pro Stock match-ups decided by traction/tire shake as well?

Tire shake, especially early is usually caused by too LITTLE wheelspeed and it tries to stick the tire instead of jump up on it. If that is the case, be hard to blame that on track prep. That is setup
Believe it or not, it is HARD to make enough wheelspeed in a Pro Stocker to snap it right up on the tire. Not much torque and a tiny tuning window, because it is mostly done with gearing.
Monte
track was fine, a bunch just missed the setup due to how good the track actually was.
