Congrats to Vinny, it's definitely going to get more difficult starting next week but he WILL be a true contender in the Pro 10.50.

Marshall was certainly on course for a strong finish though, a minor mistake on his part cost him his shot into the finals.

So I guess Cupolo took out Shen?

How did that race go down?

Yes

I believe it was a double break out (there was a lot of that today LOL) with Cupolo just breaking out by a little bit less (a 10.46 to a 10.44 if I recall?).

Thanks everybody! I got lucky a few times. I'm close now to where I want to be so next week wont be as much of a learning curve. Just a little tweaking and I should be competitive. Slowing the car down without a computer took a few more passes than I wanted. Who thought the two rookies would be in the final?

Congrats to the other winners today!

I know Marshall had a 10.51 so I believe he was #1.
Greg Colella ran a 10.51 early on in the brackets but not sure how he qualified in the 10.50.
