Indy 2011 A Stick Challenge...and A/SA Challenge!

Does the A stick challenge take place on Friday? Looked thru thread and did not see what day it happens. The Hemi shootout is Friday,correct? Thanks for the help.

Both A/S and A/SA will be Class on Thursday. DRC usually reports class by rounds. I plan to have live timing and audocast up and running.

Wow, thank you Larry and Tom for the fast replies. So it looks like if I go Friday I will still see plenty of stock and SS, stock will run eliminations on Friday,correct? Thanks again!

If you go on Friday, you will see SS class eliminations, including the Hemi Challenge. However, Stock doesn't run at all on Friday because the class winners from Thursday are in the tear down barn; Stock eliminations begin on Saturday.
SS doesn't run at all on Saturday because the class winners from Friday are in the tear down barn; SS eliminations begin on Sunday. To summarize:

Wednesday - Stock gets 3 qualifying runs; SS gets 1 qualifying run
Thursday - Stock class eliminations (Rd.1 counts as 4th qualifying run); SS gets 2
qualifying runs
Friday - SS class eliminations(Rd.1 counts as 4th qualifying run); Stock doesn't run
Saturday - Stock eliminations; SS doesn't run
Sunday - SS eliminations; Stock eliminations continue
Monday - SS eliminations and Stock eliminations continue.

I will be there all 6 days (Wednesday - Monday). I will be on the Pro Pit side, at the 330' cone, 8 rows up. If I am out walking in the pits; you will see my red stadium chair. Feel free to stop by and say hi; it is always nice to put a face with a name.

Looks like 5 Solid A Stick Entries so far!!!

A Load of A/SAs too.

My hope is that we get some wide open throttle racing done!

More spots open!
