Saturday
Results for Qualifying 1
LEICESTER, N.Y. - SUMMIT FastNews - Notes from round 1 qualifying in Show Cars at
the 12th annual CARQUEST Empire Nationals listing lane, driver name, elapsed time,
top speed, and position in order following run:
Left Lane: Ken Nelson Runs 13.364/96.90, Now #2
Right Lane: Roy Trevino Runs 10.504/129.36, Now #1
Side-by-side wheelstanders, Ken Nelson's "Cool Bus" against Roy Trevino's
'93 Chevy S-10. Clearly pickup trucks are a lot more fun than school
buses...
Left Lane: Fran Pepper Runs 6.039/246.84, Now #1
Right Lane: Ernie Bogue Runs 6.899/148.07, Now #2
Jet Funny Cars, a pair. The race was pretty even until Bogue's '57 Bel Air
flamed out at half track.
Left Lane: Bob Motz Runs 7.624/209.79, Now #3
Motz closed out the Friday afternoon exhibition runs with a somewhat
tamed-down version of his pre-run show since there are transporters parked
immediately behind the burnout boxes here at Leicester, but when he launched half
a dozen trackside signs went sailing through the air.
Sunday

several signs away when he hit the afterburner for a quick, fast pass in the big
Kenworth.
