Qualifying times for Q1 were pretty darn close - this is what makes this class so friggin awesome - first 4 separated by 33/1000's, and top 10 within a second over a 2min 19 course - less than 1% variance for the top 10, same thing happened in the double national at VIR earlier this year.



Steve Bertok............2:19.817
Jason Owenby........2:19.847
Dillon Machavern....2:19.849
Jedd Fahnestock....2:19.850
Skip Brock..............2:20.040
Ken Zalner..............2:20.061
Brian Price.............2:20.095
Chris Topping........2:20.365
Tom Fowler............2:20.384
Lee York..................2:20.457

Thanks for the kind words. I really enjoyed seeing all of the MARRS guys and gals. We missed seeing Mike Collins at the track if he would have been there the outcome may have been different. Super competitive run group this year. congrats to all. Thanks for all the help from the crew and sponsors and especially thanks to Long Road Racing for giving me a great car and to Shea Hughes of Racing Analytics for making the trip from Atlanta to help with data and setup. Thanks to Jason Owenby for racing the # 7 car for me on saturday congrats on the win buddy . See all of you soon. Almost forgot to thank all the teck shed guys for doing a great job whistling the top 4 cars. all 4 cars passed.

Way to go Race Engineering and Long Road Racing! Awesome drives in the #7 LRR by Bob Thornton and Jason Owenby. Sounds like Long Road Racing cars with Race Engineering power are the package to have!
