No, but word travels quickly when you know people that talk to those involved in the selection. If I could, I'd have already won the lotto. Just turn down the wick and run 10.8-10.9.

i think you will be wrong with that time frame guess... i think they will be looking at lower ET's (if the cars are there) due to heat in Vegas.. it's more fan and TV fun with you can run high 9's to mid 9's in 95 to 100* weather.. anyone car run 10.8's in hot weather..

I hope you're right as I love to see the faster cars down there. Good luck regardless of what they pick, do it to it and boost that bitch to the moon.

yeah but it always is 9 or 10 sec cars. Don't get me wrong, i love the show, but its become who has the biggest crew and can put a 9 sec heap together in 3 days at a shop. Lame. When the show started it was more personal. Its lost that.
