2:35 p.m. Gillig can be deadly on the tree, but Dobbins is no slouch either, so this one figured to be close.It was, just 0.002 seconds apart at the tree. Dobbins slowly inching ahead, but not by much. Jeff Dobbins' incremental margins: 60ft(0.005), 330 ft(0.006), 660ft(0.009), 1,000ft(0.010). MOV: 0.0131 seconds (approximately 4 feet).

These two have been consistently quick today. Gugliotta got the win, on a holeshot, the two cars running within a few thousandths of each other. Frank Gugliotta's incremental margins (negative if behind): 60ft(-0.004), 330 ft(0.000), 660ft(0.002), 1,000ft(0.007). MOV: 0.0116 seconds (approximately 4 feet). Gugliotta will have lane choice against Dobbins in the final round and it should be a very close drag race.
