I need a disclaimer... from the Live T/S link... use at your own discretion.
From Ginsberg's Tweet:
Liebbe P1 (2:16.9), Owens P2 (2:18.2), Ginsberg P3 (2:18.7).
He picked up 1 sec after taking the wing off. Hey Mosty, time to put your wing back on.
Nothing like a little drama...looks like a Texas style inverted start for this afternoon's qual race.
Jeremiah's qual time was thrown out due to a technical infraction. His subframe connectors are connected to each other by a tube spanning the center of the car. This tube also has a piece of steel strip going around the driveshaft, so it is a valid driveshaft loop...unfortunately it violates the rule stipulating subframe connectors may not span across the floor from side to side. It really bums me out because I am pretty sure that car has been like that for a long time and it was not caught before. I know we specifically did subframe connectors as a tech item in Tx recently because we had some discussions around Mosty's car having seat reinforcements tied into the subframes on both passenger and driver side. That really sucks.
A short while later, both Nick Steel and Dave Brown showed up late to the driver meeting...so both of their qualifying times were thrown out as well. That makes three drivers so far this weekend that have lost a qual time for missing or being late to a meeting. :?
Liebbe is scorching the track, but Ginsberg and Balingit are right there too. Should make for another great race if Adam can figure out how to not botch the start :lol:
Not sure about Patterson's qual time, havent seen those yet.
Like has been said; thanks for the updates!
If I'm seeing it right, the CMC / Deuce Qually race is at 2:30 today. The AI Qually race is after it at 3:15.
For me it seems like the live TS link is working ok.
Go get em Texas boys.
Yeah it is... Go Texas.Quote:

I have never been flagged at Nat's tech, but its been close more than once.
Its good to see our National director setting the tone even w/ his own folks. I also like the high standard that has been set and maintained over the 5 years of National events.
Mike had an electrical issue mid race yesterday. It was easily resolved post race. The suspension issue is another matter. Write it off to growing pains involved w/ testing parts for a vendor. It could get resolved, but not until Saturday (AI day off).
I hate to see JK having all this stuff happen to him. But it does show that Nats is about the details as much as on track performance.
Keep your head up JK, and keep plugging away. Win it, and all this will add to it and it will be that much sweeter.
Rob - dont change a thing. Watch Dave, he is fast there.
well crap - now all of a sudden the live link is not working for me. Anyone got it running?
It worked for me 30 minutes ago...
Live T/S... crashed and burned... i got nothing. <<crap>>
AAAARRRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!
Someone call Al and make he do play by play on speaker phone...
Or maybe Adam can 'tweet' while racing.
What goes on from there? Does he have to fix it before the big race or did he have to fix it before todays qual?Quote:

JK and RL both won. Just got a text from Al.
Go Texas! 8)
AI still to come.
