The hot track got the best of Rahaim, who slowed to a 5-second time, while Harris streaked away to a good 3.91 at 196 on the tricky track. That is two in a row for Harris.

Twenty-three cars attempted to qualify for Precision Turbo Pro Boost, the class for NHRA-legal Pro Mods (heavier than Pro Extreme). This class has a great mix of turbo and Roots blown cars. Todd Tutterow led qualifying with a 3.892, which held up for low elapsed time, and the bump spot was 4.126.

In round two, Joe Baker put Tutterow on the trailer with a nice 3.93 and marched on to the final. On the other side of the ladder, number-two qualifier Kevin Fiscus took his turbo Mustang past the turbo cars of Jim Bell and Troy Coughlin in rounds one and two. In the semi-finals, Fiscus defeated Higginbottham’s classic 57 Chevy with a 3.952 to Higg’s close 3.964.
