NORWALK, Ohio - SUMMIT FastNews - Results of round 1 eliminations in Omega
Performance TS Shootout at the 23rd annual Mopar Parts World Nationals presented
by Ethanol Performs!:
W/L Driver RT ET Speed
(W) Dave Tomasino ('69 Camaro) 0.503 6.512 210.18
(L) Kenny Rucker ('63 Corvette) 0.475 6.774 206.35
6:59 PM The "Night of Fire" opens with the Omega Performance Top Sportsman
Shootout, the "Quick 8." Nitrous left lane, blower for Tomasino. Rucker got the
holeshot, but Tomasino's bright red machine ran him down to win by a Margin of
victory = 0.234 seconds (approximately 71 feet).
(W) Carl Rossler ('55 Bel Air) 0.507 6.790 201.67
(L) Scot Johnson ('92 Firebird) 0.487 (Broke)
Two "gas passers" here and Johnson launches into severe shake, calling it
quits and coasting slowly through, too slow to get an ET.
(W) Mike Janis ('63 Corvette) 0.513 6.472 218.02
(L) Mike Lockwood ('66 Corvette) 0.546 6.847 176.88
Janis' blower car blows Lockwood away by a big margin. Janis will have lane
choice against Rossler in round two.
(W) Jim Detrick ('99 Probe) 0.491 6.721 207.11
(L) Joe Boniferro ('99 Avenger) 0.456 6.807 205.01
Boniferro got the holeshot, but Detrick had the muscle to run him down and
win by a Margin of victory = 0.051 seconds (approximately 15 feet). Detrick
advances, but loses lane choice to Tomasino in round two.

(W) Dave Tomasino ('69 Camaro) 0.465 6.632 197.74
(L) Jim Detrick ('99 Probe) 0.475 6.760 205.57
7:56 PM Semifinals, Detrick using nitrous and Tomasino a blower. Tomasino
won by a margin of victory = 0.138 seconds (approximately 42 feet), but made a big
sacrifice to the aluminum gods in the lights, lots of white smoke from the
pipes..
(W) Mike Janis ('63 Corvette) 0.494 6.445 217.77
(L) Carl Rossler ('55 Bel Air) 0.472 6.808 204.63
Wow. Janis' run would put him right in the middle of the Pro Modified
field. He wins easily and has lane choice over Tomasino in the final round.

(L) Dave Tomasino ('69 Camaro) 0.000(R) (Broke)
10:48 PM Tomasino's engine problems in the semifinals
were apparently
terminal because Janis was unopposed in the final round. He
launched, shook,
headed for the centerline, and shut it down, a winner nonetheless
