Beckman is 15 - 5 against Pedregon in prior events.

They come off the line together but Beckman starts pulling away quickly. Pedregon loses a cylinder about 600 feet out, the car starts pushing to the left, then he takes out the timing block at the end of the track. Beckman goes right down the groove with the quickest pass of the weekend and a track record ET and speed to move on to the second round.

Jack Beckman's incremental times: 60ft-0.856 sec., 330ft-2.224, 660ft-3.159/277.94 mph.
