Tony Schumacher
0.045 | 5.044 | 263.82
Steve Torrence
0.098 | 5.125 | 258.27
This is Torrence's start. He has one round win and three round losses in his previous three starts. Englishtown has not been a friendly track for Schumacher. In his 10 prior starts here he has lost in the first round five times and did not qualify one time. He has never won here.

Schumacher got the win but he had to do a lot of work to get it. He got our of the gate first but had not traveled far when both he and Torrence started shaking the rear tires on their dragsters. They both pedaled a couple of times and Schumacher managed to hang on for the win. He gave up lane choice to Brown in the next round.
