After a successful month of testing, Singleton was the one who came out on top. After taking down Stanton in the first, then a redlighting Brunn in the second, it came down to a battle of the ProChargers (a crank-drive on Singleton’s and a “side slinger” on Bartholme’s). In possibly one of the coolest races of the weekend, Singleton was able to knock the tree down with a .032 (to Bartholme’s .074) and stay just ahead the whole 1320, enough to win with an 8.15.

In Xtreme Street, Steve Cagle was off to a good start in qualifying, grabbing the number two spot. Unfortunately he has some mechanical failure that stopped him from advancing to the second round. Good lookin’ car though, don’t you think? We have a feeling Cagle will be one to watch in 2009.

In the naturally aspirated heads-up Pro Stock class eight racers showed up, but it was Charlie Booze (above) who was on a tear this weekend. After taking out Max Gross, getting a bye run in the second round, then outrunning John Langer’s Pontiac in the semis, Booze faced class newcomer Mike Konigshofer in the finals. Booze busted a .047 to Konigshofer’s .112 reaction and was able to stay ahead for the event win.

Street Radial class champion John Macaluso beat Brad Schehr in a cool nitrous versus blower race. Schehr (above) knocked the tree down with a .030 light to Macaluso’s .057. Schehr got there first with a winning but slower 8.80 at 155 mph for his first win. The margin of victory was .004.
