Eddie Rogers

Thomas Eddie Rogers of Berryville, Ark., took home $7,500 after winning the Precision Turbo Pro Nitrous vs. Pro Boost final over Canadian Jim Bell. Rogers defeated Brazil's Sidnei Frigo in the first round of eliminations, then won the second round after opponent Terry Barkley crashed. Rogers ran a single in the semi-final to meet Bell in the final.

The same crew that prepped a near-perfect track also displayed their ability to protect those racers. "The Captain" Terry Barkley, top qualifier in the Pro Nitrous v. Pro Boost class, was involved in a horrific wreck Saturday evening as his 2014 Camaro got loose, crossed into his opponent's lane, hit the wall, and exploded. The car was demolished, but Barkley was able to walk away from the crash.

Sidnei Frigo of Sao Paulo, Brazil, chose this event to return to racing after suffering a broken arm and other injuries in a horrific crash in April in Texas. Frigo's brand-new car qualified in fifth place in the Precision Turbo Pro Nitrous vs. Pro Boost class at 3.910 sec., 194.86 mph. Unfortunately, Frigo turned on the red light in the first round.
