Good Morning! Still movin' slow but it'll get better
I thought the T-jet qualifications were just crazy close, should be an interesting day!
There were 3 cars that I could not get qualified, tried best I could .
Note: * On #'s 10 & 11 qualifying, they were the same. I went with Dave at 10 and Gnome at 11 because Dave's backup time was better. ** The cars that I couldn't get a qualifying time on I put them down in the order they signed up. Hope this works for everyone involved.
Coming up next, Round 1

T-Jet Gasser Round 1
Today we start with alpink's Maverick doing a .814 against skillet's Lil C Camaro doing a 1.113
Next up is a couple of '41 Willys. Bluesguy pulls a .921 and was able to get Mike's Willys down the track. It did a 1.465 and appeared to be jumping up & down in the slot the whole way down. I'm glad it got a run!
Ya gotta love a Willys PU Love it or leave it, Dynomike decided to leave it with a .897 vs Clive's 1.144
Curly's Gasser takes this one with a .966 and the '62 Chevy deslots before the 60' mark.
Al's Rude Stude comes off the line like a rocket to take this one from kstocks. .817 vs .933
The El Camino unfortunately deslots at the line. I noticed on Dave's Camaro while warming it up that it was running funny so took a close look. One of his shunts had come loose from a shoe and was causing some kind of problem. So I tucked it out of the way best I could and he turned a blistering.667, look out a monster has been turned loose
The Tomb Raider takes this one away from the '57 Chevy with a .863 vs .937
The Mustang of gnome's turns a .801 with woodcote's Willy's, which looks good and sounds good, deslots at the line. Needs a wheelie bar IMO.
Okay fellas, gonna take a little break.
Round 2 up next!

Good first round guys. Al you can never tell what will happen with these little monsters. The tan Camaro was the quicker car when testing here. Thanks for making the adjustment Gale, I try to pack them well but things can happen when shipping. The .6 time is similar to what it ran here at 18v but the Willys was only a hundredth or 2 behind. Both were hitting 23-25 MPH.

T-Jet Gasser Round 2
I don't think Al got that tenth he was lookin' for . . . . Dave takes the Willys down track first with a .671 vs the Maverick's .819
The Pink Willys has a lot of wheel spin off the line this round and only gets a 1.186. Nosub's Anglia takes this round with a .869
Jeff makes short work of the Corvette with a .746 vs a .942
Curly's Gasser gets slowed down with an out of the chute wheel spin while the Falcon claims the victory with a .728 vs a 1.115
The Rude Stude jumps outta the slot just before the '330 marker while the Beast of the East slows it down for .741
So far, so good with the dangling shunt wire. Dave stays in the 6's with a .671 vs skillet's .843 That shunt wire thing might be a new speed secret
As the Tomb Raider comes into focus the lights go green . . . both cars hesitate a bit but the Red Vette comes out on top with a .790 vs a .880
Both cars have a smooth start, smooth run and at the finish, kstocks Warlock comes across the finish line first with a .719 vs the Mustang's .741
Round 3 will be up next!

T-Jet Gasser Round 3
This round was certainly a strange one, lotsa surprizes.
Dave, once again takes command and runs a .673 while nosubfor3 gives it a good shot at .822
Okay this is where it starts to get just a bit weird. The Big T Willys turns a .760, which is a little slower than normal. The Falcon bogs off the line big time and can only muster a .920, sending Jeff to the semi's.
At the green, both cars take off like rockets. The Henry J comes out of the slot right after 60', doesn't roll, spin or dart across the track. Just slides down the track to the 800' area, crazy stuff. The Camaro turns a .660
The Blown Hell Corvette comes off the line in perfect form making it a strong pass at .704, his lowest time so far. The Warlock Willys decided it would join the fad and leave the slot at about 100' and slide another (real) 10 inches before coming to a halt.
Round 4, Semi Finals coming up next!
