IMPORTANT NOTES:
Mario Dominguez and Milka Duno are not competing at Richmond this weekend, so if you included them in any picks, please send me changes before qualifying occurs on Friday late afternoon. Townsend Bell will drive the 2nd D&R car this weekend. Not sure if that was already planned, but Milka got parked by race control after only 26 laps at Iowa because she was to slow and thus a hazard to the other competiitors. |

Since Mario Dominguez will not be there this weekend, I would like to change my slowest qualifier to Mario Moraes, and my first car out of race to Marty Roth.

Since the first actual practice session had not started, I'll make an exception and let your picks in. Captain.
From now onward, a deadline is a deadline for everyone. |

I didn't have access to the internet all weekend long at home.
I think it is either my modem or ethernet card. I'll try to score it sometime this afternoon for you and to post the Watkins Glen contest as well. |

Here are your quals results:
drdisque & drewdawg both picked Kanaan for the pole. OpenWheel was closest ot the 4-lap avg speed: Actual-167.876 OW-168.997 drdisque also picked Kanaan for the fast lap. Again, Open Wheel was closest ot the speed: Actual- 168.692 OW-169.874 in the "Top Six, drdisque had 6 pts. with the front row correct; ThePenguin, Alwaysfirst and Daisy had 4 pts each and all others had 3 pts. I counted Camara as the slowest qualifier, but also would have counted Ryan Hunter reay and Bernoldi, even though they didn't post times. Peno picked Camara for 2 pts. Daisy was closest to the slow speed: Actual-158.884 Daisy-161.004 Results after Qualifying: 1. drdisque - 10 pts. 2. OpenWheel - 7 pts. 3. Daisy - 6 pts. 4. Peno - 5 pts. (tie) drewdawg - 5 pts. 6. ThePenguin - 4 pts. (tie) Alwaysfirst - 4 pts. (tie) NAC - 4 pts. 9. ProRacer - 3 pts. (tie) CaptainCrunch - 3 pts. I'll get to work on the race results soon. |
