Just an FYI. The Hemi Challenge traditionally runs at the tail end of Super Stock class eliminations, which begin about 8 a.m. on Friday. The Hemi cars assemble for a photo in the staging lanes and then hit the track for the first round about 9:30. The rest of the rounds are run throughout the day with the final taking place just before the first pro qualifying session in the late afternoon.

As for tickets, you can avoid the Ticketmaster surcharge by buying them at the gate and yes, the local McDonald's is offering a $7 discount so that's certainly worth pursuing.

Also, if you happen to be there on Thursday, you can also take in Stock Class eliminations where "Big Daddy" Don Garlits is planning to debut his new Challenger.

Is anyone else flying in?
Maybe we could setup a MOPARTS car pool from the airport?

No worries here. I sure hope you get the motor done soon!
If you dont mind can you give a rundone on the car and new motor?
Was that a pro stock car, or did someone else build it?

not a pro stocker but a Jerry Bickel chassis built for Rick Corn. I'll send a PM to take this off this thread.

Here is what i want to see.
Lil Joe vs Bucky in the final round.
Lil Joe wins by inches.
but you can never count out CW.
I also think Stephen Hebert might surprise some people.

John Baughman not on the list..bummer. What about the Barton Boys it would be nice to see them back dominating again...at least one of thier motors. Bucky Hess...yes that would be nice to him in the finals he's a good guy. How can you count out the CW's boys, I wouldnt know who to pick.

in my opinion you can never count out the CW's.
but it is racing for a reason, just because you are
supposed to win does not mean you will win.

I did some more checking - Ticketmaster is waiving their convenience fees for Nationals tickets.

There are still $20 Gen Adm. tickets available for Friday through Ticketmaster. Choose the "Fan Relief" option, the code is "relief".


OK. Back to the picks....

Probably to the millionth power. Hebert's exiled from France and dropped of in Nova Scotia a LONG time ago. PS I have never been to Indy much less participated. Everybody stop by and check out the "little blue car". Holt/Westcott's did a heck of a job.
