Thanks Gary!!

After Q1.....this isnt exact....but close enough

CWJ 8.61
Perkins .71
Barton (Hard) .71
Wolkwitz .75
Bales 9.0?
Campbell 9.81
Buntin ?
CWS 12.? spun
Pancake 14.? spun

Waiting for the fuel cars to finish.....

The second qualifier was interesting. it somehow was hotter than the first round, how it could get hotter we have no idea!!
Everybody spun except for Bales, with a 9.05 or so.

I think we were the only improvement with a stunning 9.78.

I think the ladder would be
CWJ
Perkins
David
Wolkwitz
Bales
Pancake
Campbell
CWS (I think he went a 9.90...)
Buntin

DOn't quote me on this, we are supposed to have a final qualifier in the am, then start elims around 1:30.

I'm not exactly sure about the sppeds, Julie, but I think CWJ went 155 and change, Perkins was 154, David was 153, and Wolkwitz was 154

Campbell is the unfortunate casualty, but they will get it fixed, and look out for that now 4 speed car once they get the bullet fixed! 4 years out from racing a 4 speed car and he had a .050 light first round!!!!:)

Good night all, and stay cool!

Cw 8.51 157
gw 8.55

CWJ 8.51

Bales 9.04
Campbell
Buntin

2nd round

Barton 8.65 over Perkins shut off
CWJ was supposed to run CWS but something happened to CWS. CWJ ran a 8.59 on the bye
Wolkwitz had the comp bye and ran a 8.64

Barton has a bye into the final, and Wolkwitz and CWJ run each other in the other semi. We had to roll out......so I hope someone can keep us posted!!!!!

Nice job in the heat Charlie. May need to use the chute if we get a shot at that "Dutch air". Thanks to the eight others that braved the heat and raced. Wish I could have been there.

PS Way to go David making the finals in Tyler's car. Looked like it ran consistent.

any pictures ??

cool pics and videos ! thanks .

Good friend had his new car out for first time at Bowling Green. had some issues with high speed wobble on top end.

Larry Perkins; 8.523 @ Lebanon Valley. He's a player with power by the Grump.

And............apparently can drive the beast too as went five rounds.

Man, just got shocking news that Paul Wilson has passed away. Genuinerocker was his post. He was an instant good friend when we met and will be missed by all. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family.

Maybe we could do a little benefit at Indy.

just logged in to report the same thing. He was up here last friday with his girlfriend to do an article. They were in Mi for a Scorpions concert. We had a good time talking. Glad I got to see him again. He has been fighting cancer for 4 or 5 years, and he was visibly weak from the chemo.
He was a generally upbeat guy, and he even mentioned that he could do nothing but think positively.

Paul called me Saturday as he was returning home from the concert. Never one to complain when I ask how he was he replied, "Just fine DUDE". I will cherish the good times. He lived life to the fullest, I hope I can. RIP.
