Is there really 4-lap qualifying on non-oval racing? Can't remember that was on St. Petersburg?

Nope, its back to the "firestone fast six" procedure for the road courses. Still think firestone fast six sounds wrong, i'd prefer firestone fast five. But then you should always avoid annoying alliteration...

So what's the deal with the pickems then, points for fastest in each segment instead of the four lap average points?

We'll go with the firestone fast six winner and his/her speed for the four-lapper.

The fastest lap could be the same, but it also could be from the earlier sessions as well, and the driver could be different.

Sorry about that....I've got a very busy week with four July 4th weekend concerts that will attract a total of baout 40,000 people and media have been calling me all week long.

I'll edit the template.

Pick the "Average Speed for the Race" (to the one-thousandth): 108.974

[Tim Northcutt]

What happened to the quals and race results I entered over the weekend?

I'll have to pick up my scoring sheets at home and do them again.

That is strange! I did quals on Saturday and the race yesterday evening.
