Qualifying Results
CFM Motorsports president Yogi Arnoux renders Timothy McDonnell "bruised beyond comprehension" but is "ready to ride" for Pocono. Hopefully he will ride with ability to turn a steering wheel. The newly-christened "catchfence man" goes to one of his best racetracks, destitute of extreme physical torture. If is engine holds up, he or Craig Lee will be the men to beat. Their records here are fabulous, with Lee breaking out of his funk here in 2023. Three years earlier Volkswagen won their first two Extravaganza Series races, watching The #22 sweep the Pocono duels en route to their third Championship title. It's not one of McDonnell's favorite tracks to race, but he did mention that he "enjoyed the facilities". We're not sure if he was referring to Pocono itself, the lavatories or the infield cream pies sold by Farmer Spence behind the old legends oval. Either way, look for McDonnell or Lee to be among the favorites today.

Milestones are in reach at Pocono! Ryan Heuser needs one more to pass "Rapid" Roscoe Riker for third on the all time list! A godsend for his season if he can pull off the feat, coming in 30th in the standings after two straight DNF's. Rick Jackson hopes to tie the late Buddy Griswald for 6th. A victory would cap his third-straight top-5 finish with the ultimate prize! They will start 2nd and 25th respectively. Bill Werkheiser is on the pole!
