BAYTOWN, Texas - Notes from final, round 2 qualifying in Top Alcohol Funny Car at the NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series, South Central Division, Showdown at Sundown at Royal Purple Raceway listing lane, driver name, elapsed time/top speed this round, position in order following run, best prior elapsed time/speed, and position in order prior to run:

---

Left Lane: Bryan Brown Runs 21.263/71.35, Now #7; Best prior run: 11.305/102.58, Was #7
Right Lane: Ray Drew Runs 10.068/81.10, Now #6; Best prior run: 8.109/111.42, Was #6

7:11 p.m. As was the case with the dragsters, cold air and a cool track combined to provide lots of power and little traction.

Left Lane: Chris Foster Runs 9.154/98.62, Now #5; Best prior run: 5.748/253.28, Was #5

Foster almost pulled it off, but started to lose traction about 300 feet out and lifted.
