Daily driver ET cut-off for 2013?

[Beagle]

before it starts, this isn't the "bitch about the 97 daily drivers taking up spots" thread ... grin.

10.80 on the low side, I'm guessing 11.5 on the high side for the 32 car final. How about you?

[nesabo]

I hope its closer to 12.00's

[Bamfster]

I think with all the banter about H/U vs D/D (wink wink) a lot of the DD guys may have stepped up to a class .... I look for the slow side to be 12.30 to 12.60 ....

[MR P-BODY]

They could break it into 2 fields... mainly for the rules of NHRA... a slower class
of 11.50 and slower(max you can run without a roll bar) then a 10.0 for the quickest
you an run for a non caged car or a certed chassis..... JMO... but I can still deal with
the 10.80.... but I think the 32 car break will be about 12.30... JMO

I'm thinking most of last years field (80%) or so will be back. With last years cut off ending up in the high 12's after the additional day, I think mid 12's could be a safe guess.

But then again, when has my plans worked out. I'm hoping see the 11's this year.

[BlueCuda340]

I am going to guess 12.00

I thought last years 32 was in the low 13's after the rain delay, but would have been somewhere around 12 teens if Friday would have been run as normal.

I feel 12.0 will be about right for the 32 car field, maybe a little quicker, hopefully a little slower.

Who Cares.....Its Daily Driver.....

[ArrestMeRed04]

2 classes would be nice, I'm scrambling to get a roll bar fabbed up for my truck to run quicker than 11.49, I'd like to at least make the final 32

13.0096 was the 2012 DD cut-off.

If the go-homers would have all run their averages on the final day at Tulsa, five would have been bumped and one of the 12.70 cars (KJ Jones' factory Mustang GT) would have been on the bump spot.

This is what has me thinking that the cut-off this year will be mid or low-12's.
