After the hours long wait that racers undergoing the drug tests had to endure, I understand why Allen went right away,probably more concerned with getting it over with early , and possibly not having a senerio like Matt Guidera had last year. ....Thursdays waits for testing were up to 3 or more hours, only one technician to test what seemed like about half the racers there !......More than a few racers missed runs on Thursday due to the long wait !!.............I got my invitation Friday ,5 min. before 1st round!....I went right after the run ,and still waited well over an hour and a half.......I left Roy Johnson go ahead of me ,so he could make it back in time for the first qualifying session of Pro Stock !.........They seemed to be testing every one , Random my A**, Roy Hill was there too , which at least provided for a little entertaining conversation about the previous days events!.............Tom
