ENNIS, Texas - PRO STOCK

KURT JOHNSON, ACDELCO CAMARO Z28, made it to the final round for the first time this year, and the first time for the Camaro, but was defeated by Mike Edwards on a holeshot advantage (7.024/195.56 to 7.018/198.89).

KURT: "I had two .460 lights, a .457 and a little better light in the right lane. That's all we had today. We lost by 12 thousandths (of a second). Our Chevy Camaro is running faster and faster. We had some problems getting down the left lane in the two qualifying runs, and then in the semifinal the thing just stepped right up -- we made a bunch of changes to it and it responded. It seems to be happy, and we fell just a half inch short of winning the race. We're running a motor that we never used before. I don't think it's quite as good as our other engine, but that one had a whole different power curve to it, and we didn't want to make a drastic change during eliminations when we were doing so well. We'll put our other motor back in it, and I think we'll be looking good for the rest of the year. We have a new car coming in the next couple of races. Runner-up is nothing to complain about. As close as this racing is, it could well have been a first round loss. There's a lot of fast cars and some fast drivers out there. I think we have a fast car and hope we have a fast driver!"
