U.S Nationals.

I just read where Bob Glidden may be driving a Cunningham car @ Indianapolis! Can I get a witness, or at least a confirmation?

Dave.

I saw it on Competition Plus. I'd say that's a fairly reputable site.

He is going to do a few test hits for Cunningham and if it all felt OK and thought he could compete then he'd drive in the US Nats. I would like to see him back that's for sure...

Confirmed.

I'm bettin' on a Mopar 360 Magnum powered car in GT.

Well first of all let me ask you a few questions!

1. Are the Skillman and Haas "new model" Mustangs competing in SS/BA and SS/DA respectively, using the larger displacement supercharged engine?

2. For a person from Michigan who chooses a Mopar, have you overlooked several very hard running Fords from your area?

3. Do you know Mr.Nowicki ?

I think there will be some very hard running Ford's at Indianapolis this week. From our beloved early model Fairlanes to some well though out hi-tech Mustangs. As to your challenge, a wager, I do accept! Your bet is on a specific Mopar entry. I can't be as specific, so I will choose a Ford entry and allow your bet to be covered if any Mopar claims the top S/S qualifying spot. If this is satisfactory, the next time in Owensboro or where we meet, the winner's meal is paid in full.

I do see that Colin has entered. An eye opener was a few 2010 Mustangs entered in SS/AA!

Happy motoring,
Dave.

Will be there to give a play by play on the action!!

Tell Leslie to keep the camera lens clean and bring home many pictures of John Calvert's 1964 Fairlane "Thunderbolt" stocker! Also if you see Colin, pass on a hello for me.

Wish you a safe and enjoyable trip,
Dave.

Been doing fine. Spending more time crew chiefing than racing lately but still having fun.

Will do!

Randy, did you see who was top S/S qualifier today? Also notice number 40! The best I read, 5 Fords in the top 12 S/S qualifying positions! I know it's very early, but I like the look!

Dave.

The "jiggling" has begun! Paul Adam's '64 Thunderbolt has fell to the number 2 qualifying spot after the third round. Todd Patterson, driving one of Hajek's 2010 Mustangs has moved into the number 1 position. Jeff Colvert is hanging in the top 10. Haas in another Mustang of the day, is at number 12. Skillman and Colin have moved up considerably to the 26th and 36th spots respectively.

Also, I must admit, that fast SS/GT Mopar has made a tremendous improvement, to number 7!

Colin's performance seems to be good for the class, after three rounds of qualifying only a couple of hundredths or so slow.

The Ford's continue to look pretty impressive, although a few of the "Brand X's" have certainly improved.

Dave.

How about this fellas!
