[mick]

no joe on qual. list.
done after missing top 10 @ indy?

joe mentioned @ BIR making
countdown was very important.

wonderful people.
if anyone deserves a financial break, it's them
they made a huge commitment this year,
sad they came up short.

Hadn't noticed before your post. They sure made a heck of a run at it and I hope they'll be back on the track soon.

Unless you heard something official I'm guessing they aren't done. I'm sure they will likely wind up racing at Pomona. Why do all the events now with no backer?

Yes and making the trip to NC would cost about $3k right off the top.

Bummer that they made the commitment to the tour this year but didn't get the breaks. I feel bad for them.

Was kind of a kick in the balls when there 3.91 was not fast enough to make the 3.97 bump

No, but I am assuming they ran .91 on Friday but didn't make the top 12. Times reset and the run would have qualified him if the new qualifying system wasn't in place.

They did it on Saturday Q 3 did not make the top 12 so a 3.91 DNQ on a 3.97 bump!!!! i worked for them a few years ago Joe made his first ever 4.5 run think 4.592 got bumped out by a .001 in the last session that was bad enough but to go .06 faster than the bump and not get in that hurts!!!!!
