What will it take for the pole at Indy
 
We have talked about the bump for Indy, Now what do you think it will take for the pole in S/SS. With all the talk about the CJ's and DP's what do you think.

I'm Guessing about a second and change under the new index's Say like 1.02-1.08 under Maybe faster if the mustangs make a mistake and have to show more than they want..

What is the DA prediction? @ 3000-3500 I am guessing 1.24-1.30 in stock.

Unless DP's or Cobra jets run each other or someone with one of these cars lets it hang out there is no way someone will be 1.20 - 1.30 under in stock, that would be 1.50 - 1.60 under the old index ..

Superstock pole will be over -1.20

I will go with -1.12 on this one. -1.30+ would be possible by a few, but to take HP would not be wise to do. As far as I have ever known, it doesn't pay to be #1 qualifier, not in money or short lived ego boosting. The DA will be no less than 2800' I would predict. If you can run -1.30 in 3000' DA, then you you probably have a soft HP rating to begin with. Just an observation.

My prediction is Larry Hill will put a stick shift is one of three of his stock cars.. ;).... Truck...lol... and will run 1.45 under to take the pole position.
