The legendary Twig Zeigler was helping out with Tim Boychuk’s engine.

McIntire's "McAttack" Camaro outran Boychuk's "Hawaiian" Firebird to the finish line at 5.662 seconds and 260.49 miles per hour - setting new records in the Nitro Funny Car category in the process. Boychuk  ran the quarter mile in 5.814 seconds at 237.46 mph.

"It's unbelievable," McIntire admitted. "It's a surreal feeling. You always come out trying to win, but to win it the way we did it this weekend...it was crazy. A lot of hard work and we overcame a lot of things to get here. This is for my dad. We worked our tails off this week to get this win for him. Dad's doing great. We got him a little too excited this weekend. But I think it was good therapy overall."

Isaias Rojas, of San Juan, Puerto Rico, scored the first win of the Crower Pro Mod class after the popular division was reinstated in the IHRA Nitro Jam program this year.

Isaias Rojas won Pro Mod turning in a 6.024 at 231.30 mph.

"I'm very happy. We loved IHRA for years. My dad ran in the IHRA Pro Mods back in 2000. Now I have the victory here. We struggled in the first round of qualifying. We went about six months without testing and we have never been to this track."
