By the way, nice job on your Wally win Saturday night "Cooter".

I understand the theory, I'm just not buying it. Do you understand that this was the final round of class eliminations. Jumping on the break pedal in a heads up run doesn't make much sense, its not like he was trying to keep from breaking out. Edmond went red anyway he could have just coasted down the track. In my opinion he made a full pass under power to help him dial for the next round.

No, I did not know the circumstances of those runs. Just thoughts on how it could have played out. I understand your opinion also, but most people don't have to run it out to know where to dial.

I don't run a stocker so don't shoot me for commenting! I know one thing the LS1 cars just slid down the ladder some more to the new cars.

It should be FI, carb, and the new cars in their own classes!
