I don't buy it. You think these guys can sense their times to tenths or even hundredths of a second? How do they know what the guys after them will do?

Hilarious Post
The difference between qualifying on row 2 of a heat to missing the inversion completely was .1 seconds. That would be qualifying from 19th to 31st. That's less time that it takes to blink your eye.
The difference between qualifying 30th.. Jamie Veal and 36th (pole of a heat versus outside row 3 of a heat) was .040 seconds. Faster than it takes a light to turn on after you hit the switch.
Yet you want to believe these guys are sooo good at knowing how fast they are timing to have the precision to hit between those ranges...
By the way, two of the Knoxville "qualifying Kings" you are referring to (Brown and Madsen), have a combined ZERO quick times at Knoxville this year in a combined 26 attempts. Lasoski, the third you are referring to, has only 3 in 13 attempts, in a completely different high budget ride (Big Game), with Guy Forbrook wrenching...not his own stuff at Eldora where he's always struggled.

Looks like the original comments were deleted?
"Poster's remorse"?

Evidently it was about sandbagging a sprint car in time trials. Hilarious that anybody can believe that possible! But plenty of fans seem to think so.
