Hi Guys...After getting floored by the race Sunday at Talledega, I've been working on my setup (at Talledega) and I've run a few races. But when I qualify, I'm placed last, no matter what my time is....What am I doing wrong? It must ne something simple (my race is too short? less than 20 laps)...and while we are at it....I hit a 194+ lap, but I'm averaging about 192, and if I get a draft I hit 200 at the end of the back straight, but I've hit a ceiling. I'm down to no spoiler, no air dam, and my right side is maxed out at 60psi...any thoughts? Lou B. Rustbucket Racing....

Keep going until you get the checker. NOTE: If I had a dollar for every time this question has been asked I could be on Hawaii right now ;-) -- **************************** Michael E.
