Nostalgia Super Stock

Tony Smith and his '64 Dodge got the Wally in the Indy Cylinder Head Nostalgia Super Stock class. He qualified number two on the ladder, and managed to beat out some skilled drivers to be in the winner's circle on Sunday. After advancing via a -.031 red light from Mike Sanders, Smith faced Rosie Kossuth. In this round, Kossuth's car actually ran more accurately to its index, but Smith's reaction time was much better and allowed him to get the win to advance into the final. The final round came down to Smith versus Douglas Watkins in his '67 Malibu. The final was a bit anti-climactic however, as after both Super Stockers did their burnouts, Watkins lit the red bulb by -.015, handing the win to Smith.

Super Stang

The JDM Engineering Super Stang class had nine cars at this event, with Bryan Hearn topping the field in qualifying. After getting a competition bye in round two that sent him straight to the semi-finals, Hearn faced Kent Nine in his triple black convertible. When the lights dropped in round three, Nine slept at the tree with a .445 reaction, as Hearn went on to run an 11.81 to get the win. In the final of Super Stang, Hearn took on Paul Gamino. In a cool double break-out race, both drivers reacted quickly, .026 from Hearn and a .027 from Gamino, but when it was done, Hearn was able to keep his ride closer to his dial, grabbing the event win and NHRA Wally trophy.
