So far Big Bill Elliot is on the pole for the 500 with a second Dodge in the top six. Neither of these cars had ever gone within .3 of todays times, according to Darrell Waltrip. Can anyone spell SNOOKERED! <G> I love NASCAR Mike
By now, everyone knows Elliot's on the pole (I'm very happy for him, I'd like to see him do well this season). Afterwards, in an interview, the trackside commentator pointed out that neither the 9 or 19 car were close to today's qualifying times in practice. Elliot responded that they switched to a 'qualifying' engine for today's qualifying runs. So for Daytona, it a pair of Dodge's up front, with Dodge taking the first step towards living up to the hype. Oh, and what happened to Jerry Nadeau? Was it car height that DQ'd his time? I didn't catch the whole story. -- Philip D'Amato [email hidden] 00 ZX-6R 00 S4 "Race1530" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > So far Big Bill Elliot is on the pole for the 500 with a second Dodge in the > top six.

An unapproved shock made one corner of the car too low. On Sun, 11 Feb 2001 01:20:55 GMT, "Philip D'Amato" <[email hidden]> wrote:
