Boone and I watched from the lanes as Clark, Ross, Mike, Scott, Clark, and the rest of the Mopars in DD made their one hit count for Great Bend. "This Valiant is averaging 11.28 for the week, and he just ran 11.29! That kind of consistency is going to play well for him in the bracket race". Freiburger's call on John's run was definitely foreshadowing, or just a good observation, one or the other.
At 1:15PM, I found myself in the water box, directly behind Addie Ross in the Falcon Wagon. I was determined to watch her pass, but they waved at me to start my burn-out when the Falcon was at half track, and I completely missed the numbers on the scoreboard. The Valiant yanked the front end up hard and the engine was at full song immediately, I hit second a little early at around 6400, and it ripped through the middle of the track, the bottom of drive felt good, then it started to struggle to pull rpm up top, and I was rewarded with a 10.781 at only 122.
