5:11 PM This is a must win for Bazemore, if he wins, the points battle will go to Pomona, if
he loses, Pedregon is the champion. Pedregon is 20-12 vs. Bazemore, 4-2 in final rounds.
Bazemore's last win against Tony in a final round was Indy in 2001.
What a great race !!! Bazemore gets off the line first but Pedregon catches him just past the
sixty-foot mark. Pedregon gets about 400 feet out, strikes the tires and has to pedal. Bazemore
gets a little further, doesn't pedal and smokes the tires all the way through the lights.
Pedregon then starts pulling away again, goes through the lights and blows the engine. Flames
start coming from under the car, it drifts over to the left lane and the Safety Safari rushes
out to put out the fire. Pedregon is 8-0 in final rounds this year and is the 2003 Powerade
points champion. |
