These are the worst conditions we have had all weekend so this should be an interesting round. This is Romine best qualifying position this year. This is the fourth time he has qualified in the top half of the field in his career, two of those here in Saint Louis. We start off with a pedal contest. They leave the line together and stay even until the 330 foot mark. Romine breaks the tires loose, pedals and puts out a couple of cylinders. He stays on the throttle and loses the engine in the lights. Smith gets to half-track, loses traction and pedals, then starts mixing up cylinders. He stays on the throttle and goes through for the win.
