Just my opinions
.007 first round of class. If Fletcher would have taken your advice, Big would be going to the second round.

Man, it was a bummer to see him miss the top 128 by .148!

But that .007 light showed that while he might be old, he ain't dead. I hope it keeps him racing that car for a while.

Bummer that Don didn't get in the field. I'm sure it's 130 spots lower than he's every qualified before.
