Tim Irwin’s “Crazy Man’s Toy” gets a little bit crazy but recovers.

In the first round of Eliminations on Saturday there were some good races and some not so good. Ward trailered the ex-Jim Oddy ’33 Willys driven by Michael Campolucci using a stellar 4.779/147.84 clocking to Campolucc1i’s 5.37/123 pass. Number-six qualifier Tim Irwin won the first round when he upset number-two qualifier John Foust with a 5.38 to his opponent’s 5.41.
