1/8th Fuel Nationals – Round 4 Buggy Qualifying

photo(78)Waiting through the heats to pass as we get to the C,B and A qualifier track is grippy now but bumpy in spots.  For buggy the back double is tough to do and only a few guys are jumping it.

Maifield’s in the B qualifier and looks conservative but fast.  He wants to TQ but not risk a top 5 run. He looks a little edgy at first but once the edges wear off the car starts to come in.  At first an 06 pace which be lowers with a couple hot laps right at the end.  Finishes with 11 – 5:04 which is TQ for the moment.

A qualifier up next and Truhes buggy looks awesome in warmup.   He starts the race off on a 12 lap pace and looks to be pulling away.  Drake and Tebo were also going fast early but not under photo(79)Maifields time.   Truhe gets in a little trouble and the pace goes to an 01 than 02.  Truhe finishes with a new TQ and becomes TQ for the event.  He drove awesome and buggy looked great.

Qualifying order will be for buggy-
1.  Mike Truhe
2.  Adam Drake
3.  Ryan Lutz
4.  Ryan Maifield
