Results for Elimination Round 2

ROCKINGHAM, N.C. - SUMMIT FastNews - Results of round 2 eliminations in GM Performance Parts Top Stock at the Hooters IHRA Drag Racing Series, Seventh annual CARQUEST Auto Parts World Finals:

W/L Driver RT ET Speed

(W) John Cavataio ('69 Camaro) 		0.551 10.172 129.31
(L) Bobby Brannon ('69 Camaro) 		0.492(R) 10.208 127.23
6:48 PM - The air temperature was 68 degrees at 58 percent humidity with a barometric pressure of 30.07 and steady. The sky was overcast with clouds moving in under a setting sun. The stands are packed here this evening as the first pair -- two white 1969 Camaros -- pulled up to stage. Brannon was too quick at the tree and lit the red light so Cavataio got the automatic win.
(W) Paul Mercure ('68 Camaro) 		0.583 10.022 131.91
(L) Larry Hill ('70 Barracuda) 		0.582 10.211 129.06
Hill had a tremendous wheelstand during the first round of qualifying on Friday. He went up on just the rear left wheel and veered hard to the right toward the wall. He was able to bring the car down without any damage and has been running well since. This pair had almost identical reaction times and that hurt Hill because he really needed to beat Mercure at the tree to have a shot winning.
(W) Matt Morgan ('69 Mustang) 		0.570 10.072 128.75
(L) Arnold Greene ('69 Camaro) 		0.596 10.099 130.94

(W) Mike Adams (GM Performance Parts '67 Camaro)1.094 14.869 70.85
was unopposed
Adams had a second-round bye. He could have run hard to try to win lane choice over Cavataio in the next round but decided instead to save the car and cruise into the third round.
