Lee qualified in the top eight this weekend and now has Global Electronic Technology sponsorship. This is the first time DeJoria and Lee have faced each other in eliminations.

We almost had our first side by side race to the finish line. Lee gets the starting line advantage. DeJoria just gets the nose of her Camry out in front at the 330 lights. Lee pulls back ahead, but has a Big Bang from the engine at the 660 lights and slows. Paul Lee was charged with an oildown, #1 for the season. That will cost 5 points and $500.

DeJoria will have lane choice over Hight in round two.

Alexis DeJoria's incremental margins (negative if behind): 60ft(0.019), 330 ft(-0.003), 660ft(0.004). MOV: 0.1915 seconds (approximately 68 feet).

Alexis DeJoria's incremental times: 60ft-0.886 sec., 330ft-2.257, 660ft-3.177/281.13 mph.
Paul Lee's incremental times: 60ft-0.883 sec., 330ft-2.232, 660ft-3.159/258.32 mph.

11:10 a.m. Clean up after the finish line in the right lane.
