SUNDAY NOTEBOOK -
Parity Now! - One person who got all juiced up over Matt
Smith’s 6.99 second qualifying pass was Steve Johnson. Johnson, reigning Indy
champ (he asked me to say that) is not only a racer but the president of PRO2,
the professional riders’ organization for the Pro Stock Motorcycles. Steve’s
role is to give the motorcycle contingent a single voice so they can be
effectively represented to NHRA management.

MONDAY - PRO STOCK NOTEBOOK
Gimmies and Do Overs – Greg Anderson admitted if
Dave Connolly wanted a do-over, he’d take one as well. Connolly was too quick on
the tree and Anderson could’ve been a bit quicker. Anderson will admit that a
.03 or quicker, and he’d have been an Indy runner-up.

Welcome to the TF rookie - Doug Kalitta has been in 52 final
rounds and this was Hillary Will’s first. The points leader admitted he didn’t
feel a bit of remorse en route to beating her.
“You can’t make it too easy on them,” Kalitta said. ‘She almost beat me. It
was her first opportunity to go after a win and by beating her makes her
hungrier.”
