4:15 p.m. Weather conditions: air temperature 86 degrees, relative humidity 63 percent,
barometer 28.68 inches, adjusted altitude 4,274 feet, track temperature 101 degrees.This is the way it's supposed to work out with the two best cars meeting in the finals. The seemingly untouchable Edwards has had a stumble here or there earlier this year and it appears there might be an opening here or there in his armor. The Johnsons have reached this point by doing it their way. Back in their Super Stock days (and in the early days of Pro Stock) Roy Johnson made his own power. He still does and has proven he can butt heads with the best. He's apparently made some strides very recently as the Mopar has been challenging the very quickest cars in the class. In a great drag race, Edwards serves notice that the reports of his downfall are highly premature. He may be a bit concerned that AJ had better performance but he's still got a few tricks to pull out a win. If Johnson was coming back on Mike hard on the top end and would have won a 1400 foot race. Edwards extends his lead in the points with a holeshot victory. Mike Edwards' incremental margins: 60ft(0.003), 330 ft(0.008), 660ft(0.008), 1,000ft(0.005). MOV: 0.0037 seconds (approximately 13 inches).
