you lazy bastard.

Left Lane: Vince Fourcade Runs 6.711/211.89, Now #1
Right Lane: Ara Arslanian No Time, Now #2

Weather conditions: air temperature 71 degrees, relative humidity 40 percent, barometer 29.77 inches, adjusted altitude 1,128 feet, track temperature 107 degrees.
Arslanian broke on the burnout. Fourcade had a lot of tire shake, but drove through it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Left Lane: Matt Scranton Runs 6.634/214.86, Now #1

Scranton with a real nice looking pass, straight down the groove.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Left Lane: Brad Personett Runs 14.454/90.10, Now #4
Right Lane: Matt Hartford Runs 6.754/201.79, Now #3

Personett really bogged right off the line and coasted on through the 1320. Hartford with a good clean pass.

Steph not out there?

Only one round of qualifying today due to a funny car crash as well as oil downs. ProRwd was bumped with only one round of qualifying.

Will get more news tomorrow.

Only six cars allowed to go.

If they did leave when the cars came out, im sure they ran back when they heard the sound of the turbos during the burnout.

you'll be surprised at the ignorance of some of the people that attend those events. i was at the powerade event in vegas and it boggled my mind to hear some of the comments come out of their mouths when the titan celicas staged. the look on their face after brad's pass was priceless however.

Actually the Venom truck might make it to the Pomona race. Of course Venom doesn't own it now but I don't think they repainted it.

No, they were having problelms with the throttle linkage.so when he raised the body.it caught on the linkage and accellerated the car.and the brakes wasn't designed to stop 7,000hp will under power. but thank god that T.P. has good reflexes and thank god that everyone was fine.1 person only got 2nd degree burns from the zoomies,but he is ok.

The guy who lifted the body almost got his grill knocked out, broke a tooth.
