Jeremy got me on a holeshot....

I saw mph was a little low for the et. Did Adkinson lift at the very end?

Both were out of it! Two bad fast cars today.

Word is adkinson had aluminum head motor. Time will tell. Jeremy is spot on with everything. 12hp for lt1. If it is aluminum head it will get 14hp.

He was in C/SA at Gainsville so, probably iron head engine still..

Before either one of these combo's get hp on Tuesday, they both will get torn down in the barn... Right?

I remember Keith Lynch being torn down at the Chicago points meet when he ran under 1.20 on a qualifying run...

He passed and then got HP...
