Factory Stock racer Jim St Charles really stepped up in the first round and became the second quickest FS car of the weekend. His problem was he was running against the fastest FS of the weekend. Jim ran an 11.20 at 120 to only be beaten by Tommy Godfrey’s 11.12 at 120.



In Real Street, Matt Johnson wins in a mild upset with a surprising 13.98 when Ginter left before the tree was activated. Jim Pickel stepped up with a 10.43 and took out Kevin Scott who slowed to a 12.94.



Number one qualifier in Drag Radial, Sean Lyon, was taken out by Steven Biggs 8.21 and his .047 light. Sean out ran Steven with an 8.14 but was not quick enough on the tree to get the win. In the last matchup in DR Matt Bell was not able to make the call with a hurt engine and then Pete Johnson left before the tree was activated and no one advances. Enzo Pecchini ran his fastest pass with the BFG’s on running a 8.08 at 177.



The number one qualifier in Renegade was also taken out in the first round. Alton Clements blew right past the old record but was unable to back it up and then he turned on the red bulb in the first round against Bob Cook.

Dan Millen has been having his share of the new car blues, but the chassis isn't the problem like it is for most. Dan has been having problems with everything BUT the chassis. The team has changed ignition boxes, had a broken rocker, Motec trigger go bad, and even the new one in the box went bad. A piece of the exhaust even came loose and damaged the turbo. The hard work paid off though as Millen had a first round win with a 6.69 @ 210.34 mph.

Mike Murrillo has been struggling with issues all weekend. They got it tuned up enough to get in the sixes and get by AJ Powell, but everything was not right. They were replacing the battery in hopes of fixing an electrical issue then they were going to search for a boost leak.



Bob Hanlon won his first round matchup in his Hot Street Mustang but he still had his issues. After round one they swapped out a transmission. They feel like they should be ready for eliminations on Sunday.



Bon Bowels was able to get by Robbie Blankenship in round one but the car is still not performing up to potential so they were swapping out a converter. They feel like this should put them where they want to be.



John Kolivas has put on an impressive show this weekend. In the first round of eliminations John won but slowed to a 7.51. When they got back to the pits they found one of the silicone couplers had split and was causing a major boost leak. They have a bye in the next round so I expect then to turn up the power to see what it will run.

We had a great first round of action on Saturday night and looking for more excitement coming today for the rest of eliminations. They are running NMCA NPS and Extreme Street now the will go into the brackets. Looks like NMRA action will get underway around noon central time. Here is an HDR shot by Mark Gearhart to start your day.

In Pro Outlaw Millen and Sikora both ran low 6.70’s and will meet in the finals later today. Millen took out Scarry who slowed down from last nights ET. Sikora took the win over Murillo when Mike could only get a 6.90.




John Kolivas got his intake tube coupler fixed and put a little more in the tune up for the second round of Super Street Outlaw. John was able to run faster then his record setting pass from last night with a 7.33 at 194.80 mph.





Kolivas will race Johnny McDonald in the semi-finals. Johnny Mac took out Dave Zylstra with a 7.48. Urist took out the modular powered ride of Vinny Barber out in the second round with a 7.38. Urist will have a bye into the final.



Bob Cook got a bye in to the semi-finals and ran it out since this is only the fourth pass on the combination. They are still off the pace with an 8.80. Bart Tobner took out Brain Mitchell on a hole shot. Bart ran an 8.56 to Brain’s 8.55 and will face Boob Coock next round. Dan Rawls took out VanGlider with an 8.51 and has a bye into the final.



Steven Biggs took out the number one qualifier in the first round but fell to Enzo Pecchini. Enzo has been consistent running 8.09 in eliminations. Jason Lee had a bye and did not make a full pass. Dave Guy ran a record 7.91 to take the win. Dave was suppose to race Pete Johnson who got DQed for leaving before the tree was activated. Jason Lee will face Dave Guy and Enzo gets a bye to the finals.



Pure Street racer Teddy Weaver had a bye to the semi-finals and ran a 10.17. Mark Anderson ran a 10.15 to take the win over Steve Gifford. Mark will face Weaver in the semi-finals. Ryan Hecox took out Brandon Alsept with a 10.22 to Alsepts 10.31 and Ryan will get the bye to the final.



Tommy Godfrey had a bye this morning and matched his qualifying time with an 11.10 at 120. Jay Dold took out Matt Amrine with an 11.28 and Jay will get the bye to the finals. John Leslie got the win light over Louis Sylvester with an 11.29 and Louis had a red light.
