Default WHAT A QUICK 4 we should have had in Florida

WOW is all I can say. I have never seen a Quick 4 so close!!!

I left the sheets at Tracy's house so Tracy you can fill us in with the specifics.

We had four cars qualified within .15 of each other.

If my memory serves me right

11.41 was first for Rob
11.48 was Talmadge
11.49 was me
11.5x was Stan

Rain got the best of us.

This was an unofficial attempt at a test for the this. Not sure if we will be able to do it at the next race but we will try.

Edgar the QUICK 4 is designed for fast cars, not your average C5 :lol:

The Quick 4 is designed for just what it says, Quick 4!!

I am kind of used to you taking shots at me but you should not insult the other three drivers that qualified for a chance to race heads-up for fun and for free to help promote the Florida Corvette Challenge. Not to mention the effort taken by others to get the track to okay it in the first place.

By the way, my C5 is not average, thank you (I have statistics on that too). You will see when it is featured in the magazine article that I worked on last week for a racing publication. I will be sure and buy a you a copy when it is published.

Stan Dempsey was the other one in the mid 11's.

That would have been a close field!! :thumbs:
