5:33 PM Critchley is the only driver who has run numbers even close to Hahn's awesome performance this weekend, and Hahn came into the final round holding a reaction time advantage in each prior round as well. Sounds like the formula for a slam-dunk, right? Yup. Hahn left first, by a tenth of a second, then drove away, backing up his elapsed time of 6.179 during qualifying as a World record. That makes Hahn two for two in final rounds this year in the Summit-sponsored '54 Corvette.
