Bob Vandergriff

Tony Schumacher

Schumacher is 13 - 5 against Vandergriff in prior events, but only 4-3 in opening rounds. They last squared off in the opening stanza at Joliet, Schumacher won that one.

Another good race until Vandergriff started hazing the tires, but Schumacher ran low ET of the meet for the win and will have lane choice against Fuller in round two. Fuller has never won a race from the #1 qualifying position (he's been #1 seven times) and now he finds himself facing the dominant car in the class in round two. Nobody ever said it would be easy!
