He ( Marty Robertson) was 4 cars from the starting line when the Mustang crashed. It started to rain a bit so they canceled qualifying. They made many changes in the last while. They are now running a screw blower. They had problems with dropped valves and other minor problems. The guys working on the car seemed to be very knowledgeable people.

Appears that they are going to continue 3rd round qualifying. So hopefully Marty can qualify.

Man that stinks, very expensive weekend for them hurting a motor and then hurting the car. Hopefully they get it fixed quickly.

That thing had either an ignition or injector problem every pass it made that I saw. Sucks bad because that car made some clean passes with the other combo.

He blew the blower off again, cutting a fuel line spilling fuel all over the track. Marty is alright, he burnt his forehead a little bit. He says it is not as bad as it looks and he will ready to go in February.

Goss puked oil on the track just off the line. I went by his pit afterwards and it seemed they were working around the transmission.

Josh (Dart) he ran a 5.00, sounds good just not performing well yet.
