Yea...but they have all day & lights.

I doubt NASCAR will let qualifying get rained out.

no shot at all of Q's being rained out. They will go until Monday if they have to

I missed practice one, how did the 7 look? Was the engine/speed competitive?

it was just like RG predicted. Car drafts, no good by itself

Car looked great, just got in some laps to shake it down, you know make sure it is mechanically sound. Leaks, Vibrations, etc.

"Q" aint like you said TOG, this is there thing, NASCRAP, think RG will go out in the the top 20 or so....

As most of us RG fans know since he started RGM, the focus is always on having a car that will draft well rather than run well individually. With the car configured the way it is, and with one hell of a wheelman driving it, I think we will be in decent shape come Thursday for the duels. I would expect the qualifying effort to be in the 40's.

Sorry TOG, dumb me recieved bad info, should learn to keep mouth shut..............

I am sorry but the car may look good but way to slow... I get it it will be better in the duels but banking on that is not a good idea. I hope it all goes well.

Read his article on Thursday. He spells it out crystal clear.
