    Big time speed by Jim Whiteley and the YNot gang. Don't know what it did on the 274, but according to the incrementals from his semifinal win, picked up 57 mph in the back half....pretty stout!

    three guys went over 270 and two went in the 5.20's.

    Wonder how Pomona will go.

    Jim & Norm were KILLER on the backhalf but the fronthalf numbers were off, comparatively speaking (vs. their backhalf and Cowie/Demke). It appears that in E3 he had that figured out, .905 sixty foot, but then according to DRC he had shake at the 2-3. Pomona should be good, I would have expected Maddern & Co. to lower the boom a bit as well...damn fuel shutoff!

    Wow..274 only got him a 5.34? After Demke's .28 a .34 looks kinda mundane.
