Elimination Update: 2nd round is underway and provided the best action of the year in Screamin" Eagle Nitro Harley...Stordeur and Furr went at it side by side all the way and it was Stordeur getting the win light with a 6.459 at 193.85 while Furr ran a 6.498 at 215.00mph. Drums Brancaccio and Doug Vancil followed and Brancaccio upset Vancil with a 6.501 at 215.72 while Vancil ran his own 215.03, but the 6.604 wasn't enough. Mancuso advanced over Romine(6.645) with a 6.492 and the Sweden team has plenty of fans in the stands and the pits and advance to the semi's after a 6.568 over Dean Comunal.

Steve Stordeur blasts down the quarter mile for a record ET pass of 6.378 and mph record of 220.58 for a win over Drums Brancaccio in the final round.

Julian Seaman says no to "ladies first" this time and takes a win over Wanda Poff in Nonpareil Super Sport. Dale Miller crosses the stripe first in Red Line Oil Super Gas, taking a win over Vantucci. Huffman is hot in Dragmasters Hot Street. Tripp Nobles makes the quickest pass of the day for the new E.T. record of 9.572 in Screamin' Eagle V-Rod. One with the win and the other with the record..a familiar scenerio in Rivera Primo Street Pro. This time it's Morrow in the winners circle and Lummus still holds record titles. Paul Smith broke in the final and Junior Pippin wins in Joker Machine Pro Modified. Mike Mulderink shines in Kresto Pro Drag all weekend and wins the trophy.
