MADISON, Ill. - Notes from round 2 qualifying in Pro Stock at the NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series, 14th annual AAA Insurance NHRA Midwest Nationals listing lane, driver name, elapsed time/top speed this round, position in order following run, best prior elapsed time/speed, and position in order prior to run: 7:38 p.m. A lot of people were worried about the weather reports, but here we are starting the second scheduled session. Left Lane: Warren Johnson Runs 6.736/206.04, Now #20; Best prior run: 12.015/80.23, Was #27 Rickie Jones is on the bump spot at 6.712. I don't have much of a comment on this one. Since it was a single it was easy to hear what was going on during the run, and I sure didn't hear (or see) much to complain about. Chalk this one up as a decent pass that just isn't quick enough to make the show. WJ will start fresh tomorrow since he didn't make the top 12 cutoff. Left Lane: John Nobile Runs 6.762/204.14, Now #23; Best prior run: 8.719/105.87, Was #27 Right Lane: Dave River Runs 7.257/187.47, Now #27; Best prior run: 6.893/198.03, Was #26 No help here for either team. Left Lane: John Gaydosh Jr Runs 6.874/200.53, Now #26; Best prior run: 6.866/200.38, Was #26 Right Lane: Danny Gruninger Runs 6.763/203.89, Now #25; Best prior run: 6.765/204.76, Was #25 No one is able to improve so far. Left Lane: Mark Hogan Runs 8.225/112.34, Now #24; Best prior run: 6.763/204.82, Was #24 Right Lane: Erica Enders Runs 6.715/205.69, Now #13; Best prior run: 6.726/206.26, Was #17 Erica steps up but not enought to get in. Left Lane: Steve Schmidt Runs 6.757/204.51, Now #22; Best prior run: 6.761/204.32, Was #22 Right Lane: Jason Line Runs 6.736/205.98, Now #14; Best prior run: 6.716/206.61, Was #14 Left Lane: Ronnie Humphrey Runs 6.698/206.20, Now #7; Best prior run: 6.736/205.72, Was #21 Right Lane: Rickie Jones Runs 6.732/205.22, Now #13; Best prior run: 6.712/205.98, Was #12 Rickie Jones is still hanging onto the bump spot at 6.712. Until now, that is. Humphrey reels off one of the better passes this session and bumps Rickie out. Left Lane: Bob Yonke Runs 23.674/32.86, Now #20; Best prior run: 6.735/205.51, Was #20 Right Lane: Vinnie Deceglie Runs 6.715/206.48, Now #12; Best prior run: 6.712/207.27, Was #12 Yonke doesn't get off the line cleanly and is coasting by 200 feet. Deceglie loses just a hair. Left Lane: Greg Anderson Runs 6.705/206.26, Now #10; Best prior run: 6.729/206.07, Was #19 Right Lane: Jeg Coughlin Runs 6.732/206.32, Now #12; Best prior run: 6.712/207.75, Was #11 Anderson's going to be a lot happier with this pass than the one which came before it. He's in, all the way up to 10th. The Jegs car loses a couple of hundredths. Left Lane: Greg Stanfield Runs 6.696/205.79, Now #7; Best prior run: 6.720/205.63, Was #19 Right Lane: Justin Humphreys Runs 6.733/204.60, Now #12; Best prior run: 6.709/205.26, Was #11 Stanfield makes sure no one forgets about his team with a stout pass. He moves deep into the order. Left Lane: Larry Morgan Runs 6.728/205.47, Now #19; Best prior run: 6.718/198.09, Was #19 Right Lane: Rodger Brogdon Runs 6.716/205.35, Now #10; Best prior run: 6.701/207.40, Was #10 Neither car likes the added humidity. Just as the next pair was being pulled into the water, we began to get rain. According to all the reports this is the leading edge of a major storm. Therefore, we're done for the day and any qualifying completed will stand. We'll start with Round 3 in all the Pro classes tomorrow.
