Mike did a terrific job of running qualifying. 66 racers in two classes took exactly 90 minutes to qualify. That less than 82 seconds per qualifier.

It's gonna be pretty hard to run it more efficiently than that.

Looking forward to watching qualifing on Sunday.

What were the TQ times today? Just a little curious about that original King, a very nice-looking one I might add.

Jessica is a heck of a racer as well as being a cute as they come. She's a real sweetie, too.
