These two made their burnout, then the call came to shut them down - it's raining on the top end.

After about ten minutes, the tractor made a couple of quick laps and they tried again. Harvey had a hundredth in hand at the tree, then Matos' car started heading for the centerline. He did a good job of staying in his own lane, but Harvey had no problems and he will face Keen in the final round. Keen will have lane choice.
