spot at 7.107. Left Lane: Drew Skillman Runs 6.651/208.68, Now #6; Best prior run: 7.116/154.74, Was #14 Right Lane: Greg Anderson Runs 6.647/209.43, Now #5; No Prior Run Anderson's 60-foot time was one second-plus this time around, but he's in the provisional field with this run - pending tech. Also a nice run by Skillman to move into the order right behind Anderson. Drew Skillman's incremental times: 60ft-0.995 sec., 330ft-2.786, 660ft-4.280/165.11 mph, 1,000ft-5.568.
