Tom and Steve Timoszyk brought out their recently finished recreation of Poncho Rendon’s “Detroit Tiger” Monza and took on Jon Wall in another ’70s car, the “Fireball Monza” racing out of Massachusetts. Both cars put on a show for the crowd. The “Fireball” moved first and put him into what would be the finals with a 7.02.

With almost 13 pairs of funny cars this was just some of the highlights.

It was after mid-day and the time was set to run the second round to see who would face one another in the finals. As an added treat Scott Ringwood agreed to give the Bunny Burkett team a chance to possibly go home with at least one win. Both cars seemed ready for the call, but while backing up from the burnout the “Mistress” Corvette was shut off due to a broken blower belt. The two went back to the pits to regroup and would return at the end of the round.

The injected funny cars were first out with some very good runs. The car that caught everyone’s attention was the recently painted beautiful “Iron Outlaw” Mustang II driven by Jamie Russell. This car was brought out at the end of last season and it will be a force to be reckoned with, powered by an injected 426 Hemi.

Bob Daly and the “War Horse” Mustang II came out with a Chi-Town Hustler style burnout. Bob ended up taking the burnout contest in the injected class for both the first and second rounds.
