Tim I've done it multiple times in the past. We never laddered first round, so that actually might make it a touch harder.

As long as the NHRA guys know you have two cars, and you are one of the first for each qualifying run, run back to your pit jump in the other one, its doable.

For r1 it will require teamwork with the opponents and track for the logistics. Doable, but requires a touch of work. Come up with car #1 get paired and the track should make you one of the first pairs down, then go back grab the other one meet up with your opponent and run at the endish of the round.

Kind of like the designated pairs deal, wouldn't be too tough......Announce first three pairs to the lanes.

Kevin if you could, insist that anyone that double enters, have their stock entry and their opponents be identified/highlighted on the ladder and let everyone know they would be first out......Tim, your brother Sean?, Me, etc that would work. Oh also, we need to add a X or something on the second entries on the superstockers to keep them organized for the timing system and for the ladder! I always just put a shoepolish X on the truck.

Sean and I will be there on Thursday. We will work with NHRA Officials and the track to ensure they are aware of the double entries(Merryfield, Stickles, Gaffney +++) and how we can help those competitors out, timeline wise, from round to round. Tnx

PS: The more cars we have the easier it will be in the early rounds
