Brooke Tatnell has to be considered a top 5 threat for the Knox Nationals.

 

1. Awesome in a 410 and 360 this weekend, picking up the 410 feature win.

Has been tough winning a feature race each of the past 3 weekends to net in the neighborhood of $9,500 in his past 5 shows.

2. Was leading the Outlaw feature earlier in the year.

Obviously noone agrees with you slideguy but subject to all the things that can happen on the way to the Final Brooke would be a real chance of causing an upset.I know a lot of people from Down Under will be supporting both Brooke and Kerry Madsen to have a good run.

I hope for a good finish for Brooke at the Nationals for sure.

But, as Parra said, there are SO many great cars there and SOO many things can happen on the way to Saturday night that noone is even ensured of making the A. Some almost certainly will, but there are no guarantees those August nights.


I am lucky enough to work at one of the best tracks 
anywhere.

As Eagle says, I hope that Brooke does well, but if past performance in any indication of a Nationals prediction, he might make the A; it will all depend on the pill draw and qualifying run..

He's never really had a strong Nationals, even when he was a full time Outlaw.....and the competition will be tougher than ever......

The first two laps in competition make or break a driver's Nationals chances. There are probably 50-60 guys who can make the A if the opportunity is right.

Only a handfull of drivers can overcome an adverse situation, though, to make a top five run.

Making the A would be a very successful Nationals for Brooke this year and i hope he can do it because he's a class guy.

I guess a 7th in the Nationals A-Feature last year wasnt strong enough after the year he'd had..... ?

He's also won a Factory Parts International Challenge as the #8 with Rush Racing .... beating ALL the big names in the process....

How many drivers can claim any of the accolades of Brooke.... he is one of the best.... it would be great to see him in a class ride with a well funded team.... don't ya think.... ?
