Twenty two years Densham has been coming to Indy, his first coming in 1979. He won here in 2004 after also winning the special event that year as a member of the Force Fleet. Bartone has been to six finals in Alcohol Funny Car and won in that class in 1993 and 1999. Densham is 7 - 0 against Bartone in prior events. Most every racer says when you win an event there's one round that you just get lucky. Bartone struck the tires right at the hit and Densham waited until about 200ft. Densham was on and off the pedal for the win and a match up with Troxel next round. Troxel will choose lanes.
