Results for Elimination 1 |
DARLINGTON, S.C. - SUMMIT FastNews - Results of round 1
eliminations in Omega Performance Top Sportsman Shootout at the
28th annual Prolong Super Lubricants Winter Nationals:
W/L Driver RT ET Speed
(W) Jim Detrick ('90 Probe) 0.518 7.466 195.14
(L) Mike Hartis ('99 Corvette) 0.552 7.528 203.86
5:47 PM The first Friday "Night of Fire" is starting
early because there's some severe weather headed this way,
lightning already visible behind the tower. We open with the
Shootout, always a wild show. Detrick gets the win at both ends of
the track.
Bryon Rich ('63 Corvette)
Al Matarazzo ('88 Thunderbird)
Just as these two started to stage, a light sprinkle started to
dot the racing surface. So they shut them down and pushed the cars
back off the launch pad. Stand by for updates.
(W) Darrell Thomas ('98 Camaro) 0.545 8.836 111.33
(L) Mike Stawicki ('69 Camaro) 0.779 18.953 35.45
12:38 PM Saturday - and we resume. Both cars with problems,
Stawicki slowly going down the track and Thomas violently
fishtailing on the top end - but he won it anyway.
(W) Bryon Rich ('63 Corvette) 0.501 6.727 203.19
(L) Al Matarazzo ('88 Thunderbird) 0.572 6.970 198.93
Rich left first and then pulled away to win by a margin of victory
= 0.314 seconds (approximately 92 feet).
(L) Mike Swinarski ('99 Firebird) 0.000 6.727 203.19
(W) Richard Penland ('95 Corvette) 0.667 7.939 170.95
Swinarski was a no-show, giving Penland a free pass to the
semifinals. In the semifinals it's Matarazzo with lane choice over
Thomas and Detrick over Penland.
