Dean Goforth’s 4.083, 177.58 MPH eclipsed Kevin Bealko’s 4.088, 177.21 to top the X-Treme Pro Stock field.

While Coby Jones’s 3.951 at 183.54 MPH leads Top Dragster qualifying, it was Dan Phelps’ third qualifying attempt that is perhaps even more memorable than Pesz’s flying doors. Phelps’s new 2013 RaceTech dragster suddenly became vertical to the track surface, returning to the ground in spectacular fashion while leaving the driver unscathed.               

Bob Gulitti’s Camaro set the mark in Top Sportsman with a 4.177 at 171.16 MPH, over Rick Wilson in another Camaro, at 4.251 and 168.47 MPH. A little over 0.6-second separated Gulitti from the #6 qualifier, Doug Woody, who ran a 4.779, 146.67.

Pro Jr. Dragster finished with Morgan Torres as top qualifier with a 7.902 at 83.49 and Jackson Core, Jr. was right behind with a 7.902 at 82.37.
