"I think it was a pretty darn good day," said Line. "I wish I would have had a better day with my Summit Racing Camaro, but for all of us on this team and especially for our friend Jimmy – what a cool story. The truth is, the man was only going to have a few chances to do this, and to get it done in that short of an amount of time is a great story. It's great for drag racing, and it's certainly great for Pro Stock."

Gray Motorsports Pro Stock pilot Shane Gray has been here before. As a matter of fact, the driver of the bright red KYMCO Chevrolet Camaro was here one year ago at the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals at zMAX Dragway. Gray, of Mooresville, N.C., raced to the final round at the unique event for the second consecutive season – and this time, he took it one step further in the final quad and finished second to the event winner.
