Congrats Mike , too bad it was 1/8th mile today , I probably should've raced anyway , but I need to save my tires for 1/4 mile passes as they are on backorder , and it could be a while before they're available again .

Conway & Shaw line up in 1st qualifying?
Unforgently Shaw's car was unable to continue

Keegan launches on a single in the left lane and goes hard right on two wheels and end up against the right hand wall with small amont of front end damage

Conway gets a solo in the final. All he has to do is break the beam and he wins. He stages, the light goes green and the car stalls, he starts the car up and runs with a 16 sec RT.

Congratulations Mike Not the way we wanted to end the season with just 2 drivers, freezing cold weather and me poping my motor for the 3rd time during the 2nd qualifier. Missing from the details was your generous support to Wayne by placing him in your car so he could continue in the Pro 10.

I predict that next year will be the year Mike takes home the season championship.
