I follow Weather Underground, normally pretty reliable. 35% chance of rain, none falling now but it's in the area, until about 8pm when thunderstorms are expected to move in. I don't know how much rain they've already had but cloudy, 63 degrees and 95%RH might be pretty dicey. Hope they can pull it off.

Terry Haddock ran surprising good in Q2 FC yesterday. Is he getting some help this weekend?

Now Galvin just said closer to 3PM. Taking longer to dry the shut down area.

Mick Steele with a boomer. Rules department please leave him alone - he's put in the work.

I see Steele's car peeled off a bunch of top-end speed which may keep the rule boys at bay. 5.41 is fantastic but I wouldn't think enough so to draw attention. Blown alcohol cars have gone quicker than that. Lindberg laid down a 5.36 - 11 years ago, in Charlotte.

In @nd round Sean went 5.435 and Steele a 5.446, I'd say that's pretty close. Going forward, just like in TAD, varying conditions can favor one combo over the next.

watching clay's video from friday, towing back to their pits i noticed the doucette trailer as they passed by.
greg hunter in #3 slot. how long has greg been driving and not alan bradshaw? they weren't at indy i'm pretty sure?
pretty sure alan was driving @ BIR?

Hunter drove for Doucette in 2025 several times. I don’t know the arrangements of either driver with the team. I’m guessing Bradshaw was either unavailable or maybe Hunter was paying to drive at this race.

I thought I heard the announcer mention Terry Manzer.
