Braselton, GA – Tommy Archer and the Archer Brothers team were confident going into today’s qualifying session, coming off a 3rd fastest time in the morning practice session at the 2.54 mile, 12 turn track of Road Atlanta. After completing 7 qualifying laps, Tommy’s 3rd lap of the day at 1:26:372 will have him starting 5th on the grid in the #54 Kolar Chevrolet Camaro for tomorrow’s 100 mile/40 lap race.
Cars rolled off the qualifying grid onto the track by their current point’s standings, which had Archer the 10th car onto the track behind a few slower cars. “Unfortunately, the traffic made it difficult to get a clean fast qualifying lap out there. I was caught in traffic a few times and had to checkup in a few turns which I know gave up some time,” says Tommy. “I still feel confident going into tomorrow’s race as we will be starting inside the 3rd row and in a good position for turn 1. I know we have a faster car then where we are starting – it should be a great race!”
