I forgot all about this and when I realized the car wasnt gonna be done I tried to get a flight and hotel at the last minute for me and a buddy to no avail. My pops was gonna fly us out there in his cessna but something came up and he couldnt.

I will be there next year. Probably getting smoked but atleast it will be by LTxs and not LSXs haha.

Default Will other round be posted, (and possibly the qual ladder?)

It would be cool to see the qualification sheet. Like who was #1, #2, etc and the ET and MHP (best of qual rounds).

Anybody have that info or a photo of the qual ladder?

I'm with you Ellis! Could have, would have and should have, "if I was there" speculation just doesn't count.

I "was there" and I set, low ET in N/A and qualified #1. Ended-up runner-up (2nd place). I was expecting 10.80s with my car, but the track and air conditions didn't suppot that.
