Wow, ok this has gotten waaaayyy out of hand ).
To date, I have not shown well at Road America. I ran well in the rain last year at the Sprints, but made a mistake and ended my day early beached in T3. A such, unless I find some secret sauce this time around, I'll be striving for a top 10 finish.
And yes, I'm going to write it up like a mofo, just to spite you all.

So, back on track now... so far Brian and Scott are looking like the favorites. C'mon West coast guys, chime in! I can't believe I haven't seen a vote for "1. Miz, 2. Acker, 3. Harris" or something similar yet.

Miz, Tj, and Harris have all looked strong out west this year... they will be up there (and Black will be there too) ....and we already know that Miz found the secret sauce! Going to be a great race/chess match.....that's what I love about this class.

Looking forward to tossing a few back at Seibkens with all that show!

I'm going to go with J.Beck.
He's had way too much bad luck for it to continue.

H.(assuming he doesn't get bounced for mismatched valve stems...or some such)B.

This is what I sent Dee before she wrote the article:

Hello Dee,

I think that it will be as good as the last lap of the Sprints, with the same outcome:

Rettich – races the most, and is tired of 2nd!
Schofield – Still the man, but beatable
Add for the Runoffs:
Miserendino, won’t get any drafting help as “he won enough”
Todd Harris is HOT from the Pacific
Tray Ayres is the perfectionist and is ready to prove his formula for success is the right one
Jeff Beck, fresh off a mechanical DQ after his close third at the Sprints, is worked up and wants to prove that his speed was not aided by non-compliant parts

Several other PM (Brian) cars and Pro Drive / Flat Out (Harris) cars and MBI (Miserendino) cars are going to stick their nose in it following their respective leaders until they can step into the limelight! If Lee Fleming comes back he is hungry as ever and will factor in as well.

Enjoy! Got your dice handy : )

Appologies to Texas...I wrote that in about 3 minutes...Denny does the most with the least hands down (that title was handed to him from Mr. Spicer as he retired). Mr. Verges...I hope so! New names on the podium encourage others!
Tray not going leaves a big gap and Lee was so close to going...and I didn't know that when I wrote my summary!

Thanks for the video Erik, that is good, clean racing. I will now vote for West Coast Todd!

I've got to support my fellow Texans. So, to that end, I'm predicting Stripling and Verges in the top 5. But, it's hard to bet against Rettich or Schofield for the win. Their last lap at the Sprints looked more like a last lap of a Moto GP race!

Qualifying combined results (from the live timing website, if it can be trusted):

1) Fogg
2) Harris
3) White
4) Rettich
5) Stripling
6) Acker
7) Miserendino
8) Black
9) Tipton
10) Marino

Schofield did not go out in the 2nd session and the live feed omits him. Put Brian 1st with a 2:37.8 and move everyone else back one spot.

Schofield didn't run the second session, but is on pole right now from first session time. Tomorrow a.m. should be another fast session.
