    If it's any indication, Comp just had 12 national records from their first session tonight.

    5.44 TAD
    5.67 TAFC is what i'm calling...

    I wont make any predictions, but 3 years ago when I last worked on Pattons car, we ran 5.70 flat and were 9th. Those fields are going to be stout and as I told Patton yesterday, folks are going to have their work cut out for them to get in. Good luck to all the teams and safe racing.

    Tough is an understatment! I think Pat is on for the bump numbers, but think low et for TAD will be just a hair quicker.

    8 car fields

    TAD 5.38

    TAFC 5.64

    Qualifying will be worth the price of admission.

    Sounds like an easy trip. Take Rte. 80 for five days, make a left at the Pacific Ocean, and you're in Pomona!:D
    Have a safe trip, my friend.

    Doesn't look like that 128% is helping the Blown cars there. Hillary ran a .30 last year at 112%.
