After qualifying round one carnage





Johnny Mac has had an interesting 24 hours, and it isn't getting better. Taking his Mustang to only a 8.15 due to a valve train issue in his 388 Windsor. "We were up past midnight last night getting this car ready," said Mac. Everything was going great through the powerglide until half track when it all went wrong. While this minor setback won't be the end of their weekend the question will be if it will hold up in the cut throat Super Street Outlaw class.





Lutz's engine self gaped a spark plug for him. They attest it to a clogged injector. They did do a "once over" on the motor to make sure their wasn't any other problems





Landis and company huffed a little too much oil. They had the blower off and checking through the motor to find the source of the problem. George Landis, even though in a wheel chair, is still an active crew member.







During qualifying, Jim Blair ran into some nasty wheel shake as he came off the line. We spotted a piece of metal that came off the car. Luckily enough, it is nothing important. They were having wheel rubbing issues on the inside lip of the front wheel well. I had the crew simulate it on the outside lip because I am too lazy to shoot a shot from under the front clip.
