TOG you said RG "will" have a dancing partner. Is it safe to say he'll spend his time running single car laps for qualifying and figure out the tandem thing during the race??

has to make single runs to get in race..has no choice...Practice sessions are way too short to do anything other than set agenda. He is a pro..he knows what to do on raceday.

cool, just curious as to whet his agenda would be. Here's hoping for a clean race and a solid finish!

Full speed is on the 3rd recorded lap...( lap 1 is the lap leaving pitroad, lap 2 is up to speed, lap 3 is the flat out lap ) ..I'm guessing the #46 & #97 got the black/red ( end of practice ) flags while on their 2nd lap & didnt get 3rd lap 'officially' recorded

True, The 7's fastest was lap 2 though. Robby might have a bit more then he showed. (got loose/ran into traffic etc on lap 3)

One thing that skew's past Q number's is Na$crap's constant dicking with the plate size.Granny Smith's vs Red Delicious IMO

Well, I just learned something new...3 mandates
1. Rear coils
2. Rear Shocks
3. Plate

Nascar only gives you the Rear springs for practice...

Congratulations to Greg Biffle for winning first practice. The Jayski Victory Lane celebration was awesome. Sorry you guys missed it. Whew! Champagne in the eyes really stings!
