I just watched the eleven-man sit out. Wish I could be there to at least turn marshal, Greg. I saw you cross the screen once.

John,
Mike has his own method of running qualifying and it doesn't generate any print-outs, as he stages the cars physically in qualifying order as they run. Makes it a little tough to get the data to post.
Plus I was needed to run the mic and lap counter for qualifying for this class...

Yeah, especially since no one, including Ron himself, has ever heard of this member.
Jen, please tell us about yourself just to forestall the already-rampant suspicions that you're not really who you claim to be.
