Great report Marty. I thought I would spice it up a little.

Chevy dominated again today with the top qualifiers Camaros. The 302 has proven to be the power plant to have again.
Matt was able to overcome the 6 car invert for the full ten car field main with a clean charge to the front and a cruise to the victory.

Saturday morning practice brought plenty of chassis news. New in the pits we came across Roy and his new updated Cuda. Last weeks outing left his baby blue Cuda needing too many repairs and "I just didn't like the color" stated Roy.

Penske engineers were overheard discussing the attributes of the roofs surface having the same aero effect as a golf-ball in flight. Brian’s car looked good on the track, but lacked the latest high-flow heads from Chevrolet and was down on horse power.

I'm expecting good things today." Lap times agreed with Doc posting the event fast lap of 13.629 sec.

Long time cheer leader for the Trans-AM series Snowy was able to make the first qualifying heat after the last delivery of his Camaro body from Russ's paint shop. Snowy pounded his way through qualifying to a third place grid position before the invert. Always aggressive driver, Snowy held off the hard charge of Doc and his horse power by making his Camaro the widest car on the track.
