3:51 p.m. Weather conditions: air temperature 82 degrees, relative humidity 51 percent, barometer 29.57 inches, adjusted altitude 2,619 feet, track temperature 121 degrees. Hight is 16 - 11 against Johnson Jr. in prior events and Hight is 3 - 0 against Johnson Jr. in prior final rounds. Team Force vs. Team Schumacher! Both drivers lost in round two at Sonoma last week. Robert Hight, in the Automobile Club Camaro, has a career history of thirty-eight wins and twenty-two runner-ups. In 2017, he already has a win and two runner-ups. Tommy Johnson Jr., in the Make-A-Wish Charger, already has sixteen wins and twenty-six runner-ups. This year, he has one win and two runner-ups too! What a great race! Johnson gets the head start at the green, but can only stay out in front for about 100 feet, just -0.006 ahead at sixty feet. Prock Power takes over at that point and the Camaro starts a steady pull ahead all the way to the finish line. Hight posts his second quickest and third fastest pass of the weekend for the twenty-three foot win. This gives Hight the 250th win for John Force Racing. Johnson ran well all the way down the track with all of his passes in elimination in the three second range. Robert Hight's incremental times: 60ft-0.862 sec., 330ft-2.228, 660ft-3.149/282.30 mph. |
