I swore I saw Filipone's stick shift car in robsneed4speed Q1 video but not seeing him anywhere on qualifying sheet or in eliminations. Have I gone crazy and senile already? 30th bday in a few days, is this a sign?

One and done. Didn't see him the rest of the last two days! Don't know why not on the qualifying sheets though.

Bobby: It is my understanding that Filipone made a run before he handed in his tech card, and they told him he was out. I did see him Thursday morning and saw his empty pit spot Thursday after noon.

Here's a few observations from Epping.
This will be a major race . Yes the Pro turnout was light ,but it sure didn't affect the spectator turn out ! ....the stands were absolutely packed !
When I left there were cars parked for about 2 miles on both shoulders of the highway !
they definitely need more improvements for the Sportsman parking, the area at the top of the track , where the later cars were pitted was beyond poor !
I can only compare the crowd and atmosphere to that of Columbus back in it's heyday !
considering how the track temps changed over three days, the track was generally good for all but a few clutch cars and one or two supercharged Mustangs !
