especially with the entry list as it is. They'll wait all day Saturday to run if it rains.The current weather for Pomona is rain on Saturday and 30% light showers for Sunday. Typical Winternationals. Should change pro qualifying to 2 rounds on Friday and play Saturday by ear.
I'm monitoring the weather too. I can only go Saturday.
Yes, we've had a couple of good storms this year.guessing the mountains are full of snow again this year? another classic pomona backdrop?
I agree. Not even the legends nitro cars are able to hold onto the track right now.We all better do the good weather dance for Saturday after that first round. That was not a lot of fun.
Rumor has it they prepped the track with 10W40 right before the fuel cars ran.I remember the previous race (Finals) on Friday Q1 had a bunch of busted runs. Q2 was better but this race, has only 1 qual scheduled on Friday.
You said a mouthful.maybe they should been in the prep guys from bradenton ,glad i didnt go today,but found it free live on you tube.
Tonight was a shit show.
Track temp being too low wasn't the issue at all, the start of the funny car session track temp was 112. Force did try to leg it out and about ended up on his roof as he crossed the center line.Yes, that was one of the worst 1st round of fuel qualifying we have seen in some time. What a disappointment. Very rare for Pomona, as it usually doesn't go south like that. Though it can get chilly at Pomona in the late afternoon, so I wonder if the track temp just got too low for most tune-ups. But I'm surprised more drivers didn't leg it out (especially Force) knowing this might be the only chance to get in the show.
