The "Peoples Champion" is lucky that I am not going to the Runoffs.  :banana:     :hugegrin:

 

I think we are all lucky.  The grid will look a lot prettier without your car on it :D

Smart.  That'll keep him out of the turn 1 melee and you gotta love that color.

I already have a plan to avoid the wreckfest in Turn 1. But I will keep that a surprise :)

Just finish 13th or lower in the qualifier and you won't have to worry about it.

Seems like I recall two cars fitting through T1 when MX5 raced there this year, but it looks really tight. I am sure someone will want to test the 3 car limit at some point....

Seriously John, I look forward to meeting you at the Runoffs.

 

We are paddocked right across from Drago's camp!  Somebody has to keep an eye on them to make sure they aren't cheating!

It is an excellent color!

People have different names for that color.   I think the best name for it is kryptonite.  It's known to weaken whatever go fast stuff you put in the car.

I see at least 3-4 names that have a shot for a podium and another 5 or more that have a legitimate shot to round out top 10. 

i hope to qualify a few spots behind Stearns....He will be like Jesus parting the Red sea at the start of the race.

I think there are people on this list that CAN win, but doing the math, Haldeman, Bender, (edit - add Powers) are the only to score SuperTour wins in 2017 who weren't at VIR.

The field at VIR accounted for 14 of the 22 super tour wins and with the exception of Adam Roberts, there weren't more than 15 cars in the other races.

Sorry guys, I'm sticking to my story. Smack on...

Not like Daytona?
The best driver won Daytona, so the best driver won't win?

I'm sorry, you were talking to Danica and I just crashed in.
