Good luck to all that are there. Have a great week and make some great memories.

Mother Nature has been helping the “I don’t want to go a second under” racers. She has supplied a head wind to help slow everyone down.

I have a request, for someone in the pits at Indy. Irvin Johns is listed on DRC as driving an '05 Cobalt. He's #18 on the SS Q-1 list.

https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...er=30#indextop

That is NOT the car listed on the pre-entry list. In 2019, Todd Frantz drove an Irvin Johns '05 Cobalt to the GT/FA class win. At that time, it was powered by a 428 Pontiac engine.

So, I'd like to ask a favor of someone with access to the pits. Please go to the Johns/Frantz SS pit, take a look at the engine in the '05 Cobalt, perm #391, & post what brand engine it is. Will really appreciate it if someone who has access & the time will do this for me & all Pontiac fans who may be interested.

IF it does have Pontiac power, please post a pic of the engine, if you have a way to do this.

Thanks in advance !

By one car it made it to Mineshaft conditions. Sure isn't fast. 128th right now is .404 under

I believe when he came up for Q1 Allen said it was 428 Poniac powered.

First round of class is qualifier too

"I believe when he came up for Q1 Allen said it was 428 Poniac powered."

Thanks for the info !

Would love to see a pic of it in the little Cobalt, if somebody there has the time & ability to do it.

I have these older pics of the car I think I'm talkin about. Can't be certain this is the same car, or that if it is, it still looks exactly like this.

Question on the mineshaft rule. If it meats the mineshaft criteria in qualifying is it wide open for the rest of the meet?
