DINWIDDIE, Va. - RICHMOND - Notes from round 1 qualifying in Screamin' Eagle Nitro
Harley at the Hooters IHRA Drag Racing Series, 2nd annual ACDelco Nationals
presented by Chevrolet listing lane, rider name, elapsed time, top speed, and
position in order following run:
Left Lane: Mike Romine Runs 7.521/132.66, Now #1
Right Lane: Jay Turner Runs 8.684/111.80, Now #2
1:17 PM It's 95 degrees, 40 percent relative humidity, the barometer 30.00
and falling. Romine looked like he was on a good run, but his engine went silent
at half track. Turner's ride bogged off the line, then labored and he shut it
down.
Left Lane: Doug Vancil Runs 8.696/104.84, Now #4
Right Lane: Bill Furr Runs 7.259/144.33, Now #1
Both bikes left hard with 1.106 60-foot times, but Vancil then smoked the
tire and Furr abandoned the run around half track.
Left Lane: Mark Conner Runs 7.969/121.00, Now #4
Right Lane: Mark Cox Runs 6.700/198.47, Now #1
Finally a full pass, Cox setting the front wheel down around the 1,000-foot
marker. Conner was playing catch-up all the way and steadily losing ground.
Left Lane: Ray Price Runs 6.697/210.31, Now #1
Right Lane: Steve Stordeur No Time, Now #8
Stordeur lost power immediately. Nice pass by Price, who is on his "65th
Anniversary Tour" this year - not 65 years of racing, but 65 years of age.
Left Lane: Johnny Mancuso Runs 6.695/198.96, Now #1
Mancuso takes over the top spot - by just 0.002 seconds over Price.

Right Lane: Mike Romine Runs 8.363/96.80, Now #8

presented by Chevrolet listing lane, rider name, elapsed time/top speed this round,
position in order following run, best prior elapsed time/speed, and position in
order prior to run:
Left Lane: Mike Romine Runs 6.861/195.90, Now #7
Best prior run: 7.521/132.66, Was #8
Right Lane: Mark Cox Runs 6.618/206.45, Now #6
Best prior run: 6.700/198.47, Was #6
6:20 PM This is simple. Jay Turner is the only rider outside the field and
the bump is Romine's 7.521. Romine's engine went sour midway through the run, but
he stayed with it and moved off the bump spot. Now the bump is Bill Furr's 7.259.
Cox made a solid pass, the front wheel in the air for about 1,000 feet, to retain
his hold on sixth spot.
Left Lane: Mark Conner Runs 7.150/150.97, Now #5
Best prior run: 6.614/206.54, Was #5
Right Lane: Bill Furr Runs 7.189/162.88, Now #8
Best prior run: 7.259/144.33, Was #8
Both engines went silent about 1,000 feet down the strip after going off-song
near half track, Furr improving but still on the bubble.
Left Lane: Johnny Mancuso Runs 6.472/208.59, Now #1
Best prior run: 6.496/203.86, Was #1
Right Lane: Jay Turner Runs 7.048/173.58, Now #7
Best prior run: 8.684/111.80, Was #9
Nice run by Mancuso, quick time of the event. Turner's run was sluggish, but
it was enough to get safely in the field, bumping Furr.
Left Lane: Doug Vancil Runs 8.292/124.01, Now #4
Best prior run: 6.579/203.95, Was #4
Right Lane: Steve Stordeur Runs 6.679/201.67, Now #2
Best prior run: 6.502/211.49, Was #2
Vancil smoked the big rear slick like a fuel car. Nice run by Stordeur, but
not his best.
Left Lane: Ray Price Runs 6.374/219.04, Now #1
Best prior run: 6.543/216.65, Was #3
Wow!! Price runs low ET of the event and a career-best elapsed time, the
second-quickest ever. Looks like he won't be retiring any time soon.
