You can see the future?
Ooops! I got too amped up and red-lit on that one. Forgot there is one more session to go.

Shocking!! Kalitta bumps in only to have Langdon bump him back out Q5!!! Glad I pulled him from my PTW

First time in six races I didn't pick Doug Kalitta.

Another crazy thing. Dan Mercier double steps and runs a 3.76! Only person to run quicker was Tripp Tatum with a 3.74?? If I were Mercier I would double step all day Monday, lol (Of course without the red light)

I swapped him out after 2 qualifying sessions. Just wasn't sure of him. Sure didn't think he would not qualify.
I'm really impressed with Mercier. Don't know anything about him, or who his CC is, but he has really done well this year so far.
And how about Tripp Tatum? Haven't seen him much since his outstanding Gatornationals win, but looks like he is certainly in the Super Part-timer category.

Rob Wendland was helping him. I assume that’s still the case. They definitely are not a team you want to line up first round against. The other that comes to mind is Zizzo. Take them for granted and you’re going home.
Now that you mention it, I recall Mercier said on a Friday top end interview that the blower belt company advertising on his dragster is Wendland's company.

These hot tracks apparently give some of these really top teams big problems. That’s terrible for Doug Kalitta, but of the top teams, no one except Antron really excelled in qualifying. Well, there’s Brittany too. Top of the ladder is filled up with part-time teams. Good for them! Let’s goooooo!!!!!! I love underdogs!
