Gilbertson's back-up
I didn't realize it & I didn't hear anything about it on the show but Gilby had to pull out a back-up car for eliminations just like Cruz. On the NHRA site he said that after qualifying was over they discovered that their chassis had been tweaked when he ran into the sand trap while running an IHRA race earlier. That team seems to be having their share of misfortunes & they have a car that can jump up & bite anyone at any given time.

Apparently they sheared a fuel pump shaft at the hit of the throttle too.
I really thought Denver was gonna be their race. I agree with ya' though Rog, that car's gonna be a spoiler for a few teams this year and hopefully they can get themsleves a Wally yet this season. |
