    Yes, respectable 320, behind Speedball and Blondie who are generally the fastest stock Mustangs.

      181 is no longer on the list. I assume they're standing down. Any word on what the issue is?

        I was just in the pits a few minutes ago.

        The cowl is off, but the engine looks to be together. I spoke with another fan who said that they had the cylinder heads off over night.

            I see Miss Minn just beat out Limitless in the F1 qualifying. Glad to see we got what appears to be a great race for first in Formula 1.

                Guess he'll be racing the back of Silver.

                    I was there yesterday, and just saw where Miss A was DQ'd. Doc called for the clock for one lap when he was at pylon 4 (or there about's). The timers radio wasn't working so she had to be relayed the message. When she finally told Brent he would be on the clock he was already passing home pylon. The timer said "Race 11 you'll be on the clock the next time around". Brent ma have had the volume turned down so he might not have heard the timer, I really don't know. Miss A turned a lap that (in my opinion), was a little bit slower than Dreadnaught on Monday, but still in the hunt. After one lao Brent pulled off the course and race control said his timing lap was canceled. Brent came back and asked if they got a time on him at all, and asked if he needed to fly another lap. The timer stated that yes, they did get a good qualifying time. So Brent landed. That was 10 minutes before the last qualifying session ended. With the information I have, this could be the only thing I can think of that might have DQ's Miss A. Maybe the timer didn't get a good qualifying time after all? Miss A looked good, sounded good, I hope they let her race! (Sorry the pictures are rotated, I don't know how to fix that!)

                      Here's some video from Biplane racer Tommy Suell (#25 Shake & Bake) of his qualifying and some from the pits. In this video there's some fottage of Miss A doing some laps from today, Wednesday the 15th. So maybe I was wrong about the radio confusion. Anyhoo, It's a good video of the air races and behind the scenes of Tommy's effort. Very entertaining! Like and Subscribe!
