Tony Pedregon -0.075 | 4.983 | 267.8 John Force 0.101 | 4.805 | 327.66

J. Force holds a 52-21 record against T. Pedregon. Tony has won this event in 1998 and 2003. I still have not heard how badly he twisted is ankle yesterday as he walked into the sand trap to speak to Bob Tasca III. This is hard to describe. Tony red lights and continues the run to the lights. He has the car blow it's self apart and throw stuff at Force in the other lane. Pedregon was on fire, big time, with part of the body in front of his face. He had no idea where he was and tapped the wall slightly. Force was watching Pedregon's car catch fire and he admitted he forgot to pull the chutes. He nosed the Ford into the sand and had many folks on hand to help him out of the car. Reports are that Pedregon is ok and is only in the ambulance to be checked out. It's certain that it got pretty warm in that car! Oh. Tony DID redlight and Force will have lane choice over Scelzi next round.
