Heads-up! 9:22 a.m. Weather conditions: air temperature 53 degrees, relative humidity 20 percent, barometer 30.10 inches, adjusted altitude 1,864 feet.
Warter goes red and then has his car drive dead right towards the tree. He pulls it back hard to miss the center line and the Tree, but its almost too hard, as it gets way up on two wheels before he can get it back on the ground and under control ... CRAZY!!

Granier gets the bye run to the final round.
