4:38 PM It's WJ's sixth final round this year, but he's only won once, back in Gainesville. That's a severe win drought for a driver who normally wins several events each year, Johnson having won 80 events in 128 final round appearances in his career. It's Jeter's first trip to the finals in Pro Stock, though he has several wins in Comp Eliminator. Jeter got a holeshot, but it wasn't big enough to cover Johnson's performance advantage and "the Professor" drove by on the top end to win by a Margin of victory = 0.027 seconds (approximately 8 feet).
