Great 0.004 light for Hammond and the car pulls further ahead all the way to the finish line for a big win. Stanfield doesn't run in the sixties for the first time this weekend.

 1568 Justin Humphreys                        6 Allen Johnson

Johnson gets a little advantage off the line and then has to watch Humphreys drive on by before the sixty foot lights. He makes his best run of his weekend and will have lane choice over Hammonds in round three.

    1 Jason Line                              4 Mike Edwards

Both cars go red, but Line is first. Edwards gets another free pass to the next round.

E2   ****WINNER****  0.015  6.646 207.88                     0.080  6.672 206.80

The Pro Stock season comes down to this pair. Jeggie does his job off the line with a great 0.015 light. Not even close after that and a big 28 foot MOV to seal the deal. Jeg Coughlin is the 2007 POWERaid Pro Stock Champion.

2:04 p.m. Oh, yah... He has lane choice over Edwards in the semi's.
