Official 2011 Buick Performance Group Nats TSM Results Columbus, OH
First I want to say thank you to BPG and National Trails for letting us have a place to race and socialize with our friends. By far this was the best promoted event I have seen in the past few years. Big Thanks go to the BPG staff for spending their time to make sure we were all having a good time and making sure we didn't need anything.
Even though the weather was H O T everyone I saw and talked to had a great time and seeing the TTA's all lined up in the pits was an awesome sight.
Official Qualifying Order:
1. Jason White 9.448 @ 144.78
2. Tim Lemay 9.597 @ 142.19
3. Bobby "Buick" Slusser 10.294 @ 132.30
4. Steve Pitts 14.488 @ 73.46
5. Justin Hinderer 15.897 @ 52.68
In TSM we had 5 contenders one of which was, Justin Hinderer, a new comer with an amazingly sweet and clean white Turbo T making his debut appearance and first pass in his newly built TSM car. The car left with authority and the wheels up when something in the trans let go aborting the pass.
Can't wait to see this new car at the next race.

Ronnie spills the beans with his banter in the staging lanes about how much boost they are gonna run against JW in the finals. "We turned it up to 45psi just for you" Everyone at the tunnel to the burnout box is laughing and having a great time listening to the back and forth pokes between racing crews. Tim and Jason just stand back and listen. The two drivers shanke hands and get buckled up in their cars. Both cars do their burnouts and slowly start creeping into the pre stage beams. Tim goes in, Jason follows, Tim sets the stage light and as Jason falls into the beam Tim's car lunges forward due to a trans brake failure. Tim's red light comes on just as Jason leaves the line.
