Phoenix is the headquarters of Make-A-Wish foundation and Johnson really would like to make a big statement here. Johnson number one qualify pass in session four yesterday also set the track ET record at 3.837. Courtney Force had set it earlier, just 0.001 slower. He has 54% win record in round one races and won three of the four prior round one encounters with Burkart.He has won once from the top spot in FC and that was in 2007. 2016 Phoenix: Qualified No. 7, lost in second round to Courtney Force Events Wins Rup Poles W/L CAREER 399 15 24 14 337-340 Burkart has over 166 rounds of racing and a 45% win record.

Weird! The car just shuttered at the green.TH butterflies snap open and then closed. He slowly motors on down the track. Broken Throttle cable?

TJ was going to be hard to beat, as he makes another 3.89 pass for the easy win.
