I can't even believe Quals are this Saturday! This week we were allowed to do practice qualification runs for five minutes on a cleared track and the competition looks fierce! Saturday looks like it should be quite a sight to see with some of the best riders cranking out their absolute fastest laps. Even though our team doesn't go until 11:45 a.m., we will be there early to see how other teams do. I'm confident we will do well. All I can hope for is the weather to be on our side as well. Finally Little 500 is HERE!
