inches, adjusted altitude 1,368 feet, track temperature 97 degrees.Bazemore has owned Gilbertson
in head-to-head matchups. Gilbertson was able to make the call because of the help he got from
both of the CSK teams, Ron Capps, The Carrier Boyz team, Baca's team and the Weis team. Gilbertson
had problems on the burnout, but gets it staged. Gilbertson is then real early, and this will give
Bazemore his first ever win in Gainesville and first win since Topeka last year. Bazemore will
leave here with the Funny Car points lead.
