PITTSBURGH - Results of round 1 eliminations in Top Fuel vs Jet Dragster at the 2013 Nitro Jam Series, IHRA Pittsburgh Nitro Jam:

 Car#-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT-----ET---Speed-----Car#-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT----ET---Speed
  345 Bruce Litton                               Bye
E1   ****WINNER****  0.159  6.083 108.67     

Litton will be racing Jill Canuso in the brand new "Queen of Diamonds" jet dragster later this evening. He made a solid launch, but started losing traction after about 300 feet and he slowed.

That may work to Canuso's advantage, but we really don't know what to expect from the jet bacause she apparently left before the traa came down on her practice run, receiving no time - but the run was clean and straight.
