    Joliet looks like another rainfest, but hopefully TAD gets at least 2 sessions. If TAD gets 3 sessions, it will be the quickest field ever. If the top AFD's don't fear a CIC, a 5.0 could pop-up on the scoreboard in qualifying.

    1.. Alan Bradshaw-------5.154
    2.. Michael Gunderson---5.181
    3.. Tony Bartone--------5.213
    4.. Bill Reichert-------5.227
    5.. Morgan Lucas--------5.231
    6.. Keith Stark---------5.245
    7.. Todd Datweiler------5.251
    8.. Richard Bourke------5.259
    9.. Arthur Gallant------5.271
    10. Marty Thacker-------5.289
    11. Dave Hirata---------5.301
    12. David Wells---------5.319
    13. Jeff Wilson---------5.336
    14. Ken Perry-----------5.353
    15. Guy Kelly-----------5.361
    16. Shelly Howard-------5.384


    10 AFD's and 6 BAD's

    -------------------------------------------------
    Notable DNQ’s (Any of these cars has a shot to qualify)

    Russ Lindert----------5.389
    John Haley------------5.401
    Darrell Hitchman------5.408
    Mike Cofini-----------5.409
    Lee Callaway----------5.432
    Fran Monaghan---------5.451
    Doug Foley------------5.471
    Chris Ricketts--------5.481
    Mitch Myers-----------5.493
    Mike Bowers-----------5.501

    errr it better not be another rainfest! Getting very exspensive driving back and forth twice for the same race. I can only imagine how much extra cost its costing the teams out there as well.

    Should be an awesome Field for both Alky Classes.

    Low 5.50's for Manzo what do you think Pat?

    Manzo, Newberry, Payne, Austin, Gasparelli, and Branch are the most likely to be in the 50's during qualifying. If Manzo gets 3 sessions, the Kendall TAFC will better Bartone's 5.549.

    You got a grudge against Manzo or something sheesh! If he gets 3 qualifying sessions I say he breaks the record.

    Pat Cy Chesterman another that could pop into the 5.50's

    :mad: Possible. The weathermen here are forcasting cool temps all weekend with highs in the upper 60's. Possible showers on Fri & Sat (30% chance each day). If it does rain hopefully it be short in duration.

    :mad: Ouch! Now the forecast is for showers on Friday, a few showers Saturday, and scattered showers Sunday. Hopefully it will move north or south and spare this area.
