Las Vegas II 2023

[n/a]

I noticed during the broadcast on FS1 Friday night when Chad Green was staging for the second qualifier a note appeared at the top left of the screen saying that Chad ran his quickest time ever at Dallas of 3.61. Thought I was having a senior moment. Anyone else notice that?

Well, he must have already passed that 340 mark too……

Looks like tomorrow is gonna be a real handful. 66 degrees but 30-40mph NNW winds and plenty of blowing dust. If that track is west-east it'll be rough sailing. As mentioned, any 340mph passes will likely be confined to the F16s.

I thought I was seeing things but that makes two of us

track faces North, north east. The bikes and pro stock better be careful

Gong to be a long day at the track today. Walked outside the casino a little bit ago and it is cold and windy. They had to stop racing last night during alcohol funny car round 1 due to sand on the track. I expect that to be a major issue today.

What grinds my gears, is that they knew they were probably running against the clock last night, especially after the Pro Mod crash but decided to run the two pairs of jet cars which meant having to re-prep afterwards. I just hope everyone stays straight and true today.

Better set the DVR for an extra hour.

If they to have jet cars they should run last no matter what. The D.ck up the track every time.

I just texted my buddy its 46 and windy out there. BRRRRRR

Make it 2 hours.

 

[Chili]

Yes it’s very windy and cold.

Well that was a much better 1st Rd of TF than I thought. Some very good, close racing. And Pruett goes out 1st Rd! That is a real blow to her title hopes. Kalitta, Torrance, Salinas, and Ashley all advance.

Not such a good 1st Rd of FC - with many more (as expected) tire smokers. And Capps goes out 1st Rd! Tasca and Hulk both advance.

TF has 5 cars (top 3 could go into Sunday all within a round) with a shot going into Pomona and FC the top 3 are all within a round of each other. PS and PSM are basically over. Pomona in 2 weeks should be good.
