Thunderbolts Qualifying Notes, Session #1

By Larry Sullivan

EDMONTON, Alb. - Notes from round 1 qualifying in Thunderbolts at the 2005 Hooters IHRA Drag Racing Series, Third Annual Western RV Rocky Mountain Nationals presented by TORCO Race Fuels listing lane, driver name, elapsed time, top speed, amount over/under index, and position in order following run, class and class index:

Left Lane: Brent Harris No Time, Now #0 TB Index: 7.50

6:05 p.m. "Plastic fantastics," running against a 7.50 index. Harris launched, turned right, briefly crossed the centerline, then continued the run - but it won't count.

Left Lane: Not on File Runs 7.558/183.57/0.058, Now #0 TB Index: 7.50
Right Lane: Sherrie Bodnarchuk Runs 7.937/145.64/0.437 TB Index: 7.50

No info yet on the left-lane car or driver, but he (or she) went to the top spot on a nice run. Bodnarchuk's scaled-down Super Bird was a bit loose early in the run.

Left Lane: Tony Coopress Runs 7.324/191.81/-0.176 TB Index: 7.50
Right Lane: Cal Tebb Runs 7.595/178.35/0.095 TB Index: 7.50

Coopress' car is a 56 T-Bird, complete with porthole windows in the top.

Left Lane: Shawn Bulechowsky Runs 7.961/172.12/0.461 TB Index: 7.50
Right Lane: Cory Kincaid Runs 8.348/121.55/0.848 TB Index: 7.50

Left Lane: Darrell Webb Runs 7.606/180.31/0.106 TB Index: 7.50
Right Lane: Tim Stevenson Runs 13.838/62.51/6.338 TB Index: 7.50

Stevenson's engine went sour right off the starting line. Nice run by Webb, right down the groove.

Left Lane: Jay Mageau Runs 7.634/183.37/0.134 TB Index: 7.50
Right Lane: Eddy Plaizier Runs 7.635/174.12/0.135 TB Index: 7.50

Two nice passes in a side-by-side show for the crowd.
