4:50 p.m. Weather conditions: air temperature 77 degrees, relative humidity 23 percent, barometer 28.92 inches, adjusted altitude 2,722 feet, track temperature 84 degrees.

The new champ is out to face Rivas in the final. You have to believe he'd like to put the punctuation marks on this event with a win. Not going to happen. Krawiec becomes the first Pro to win a title without winning an event since Rob Bruins in 1979. Bruins did it in Top Fuel. Rivas runs the quickest pass of the weekend but falls a handful of points short of the title.
