KENT, Wash. - SUMMIT FastNews - Notes from round 1 qualifying in Pro Stock at the
13th annual Prolong Super Lubricants Northwest Nationals Presented by NAPA listing
lane, driver name, elapsed time, top speed, and position in order following run:
Left Lane: John Geyer Runs 7.042/191.10, Now #1
Right Lane: J.R. Carr Runs 7.164/193.05, Now #2
The T.V. monitor is not working yet, so we cannot see the track from out
vantage point at the finish line.
Left Lane: Robert Patrick Runs 6.979/196.47, Now #1
Right Lane: Terry Adams Runs 11.596/75.85, Now #4

Left Lane: V. Gaines Runs 6.973/196.76, Now #1
Right Lane: Tony Gillig Runs 6.986/196.64, Now #3
The Pro Stock drivers like this place because the trees produce lots of
oxygen - two nice runs.
Left Lane: Troy Coughlin Runs 6.978/197.57, Now #3
Right Lane: Jim Yates Runs 6.954/198.23, Now #1
Two more good opening runs.

Left Lane: Tom Hammonds Runs 7.046/194.83, Now #14
Right Lane: Bruce Allen Runs 6.972/198.44, Now #5
The Reher-Morrison car is running a paint scheme reminiscent of the cars Lee
Shepherd drove for them. Good ET, big speed, bettered only by WJ's speed this
session.
Left Lane: Tom Martino Runs 8.083/124.59, Now #18
Right Lane: Richie Stevens Runs 6.947/197.13, Now #1
Martino was right with Stevens through 60 feet, then slowed before the
330-foot marker. Stevens bettered Jeg by 0.004 seconds to take over the top
spot.
Left Lane: Kurt Johnson Runs 13.934/53.87, Now #21
Right Lane: Hurley Blakeney Runs 7.034/196.76, Now #14
KJ launched into violent shake and shut it down early, the shake so violent
the chute came out.
Left Lane: Allen Johnson Runs 6.979/196.79, Now #10
Right Lane: Rickie Smith Runs 6.963/197.22, Now #5
Nice side-by-side run at the finish line (where we are).

Right Lane: Mike Thomas Runs 7.232/195.68, Now #21
Krisher continues to show the rest how it's done, a very good run with the
best 60-foot time of the session, the best ET, and just missing top speed of the
session by 0.03 mph.

KENT, Wash. - SUMMIT FastNews - Notes from round 2 qualifying in Pro Stock at the
13th annual Prolong Super Lubricants Northwest Nationals Presented by NAPA listing
lane, driver 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: Warren Johnson Runs 6.951/198.44, Now #4
Best prior run: 6.980/198.99, Was #13
Right Lane: Troy Coughlin Runs 6.931/198.52, Now #1
Best prior run: 6.978/197.57, Was #10
6:37 PM We open the evening qualifying session with a pair of the top
performers in the category. Our video feed is finally working and we had a good
look at two good runs, Troy outrunning "the Professor" in both ET and speed.
Left Lane: Darrell Alderman Runs 6.961/197.05, Now #7
Best prior run: 6.969/197.25, Was #9
Right Lane: Brad Jeter Runs 6.981/197.22, Now #14
Best prior run: 7.336/152.14, Was #23
Nice side-by-side show for the crowd, bumping Larry Morgan. The bump spot
is now Mark Pawuk's 6.990.
Left Lane: George Marnell Runs 6.991/196.67, Now #18
Best prior run: 7.007/196.64, Was #18
Right Lane: Larry Morgan Runs 6.989/198.09, Now #16
Best prior run: 7.007/197.74, Was #17
These two ran identical ETs last session, Morgan a little faster. This time
Morgan is a few thousandths quicker, replacing Pawuk on the bubble, and Marnell
just misses once again.
Left Lane: Jeg Coughlin Runs 6.920/197.94, Now #1
Best prior run: 6.951/197.86, Was #5
Right Lane: Mark Pawuk Runs 6.947/197.80, Now #4
Best prior run: 6.990/196.67, Was #17
Jeg posted a 1.018 60-foot time, very quick, and followed it up nicely to
take over the #1 spot. Pawuk was a little slower, a 1.038, but stepped back into
the field nicely, bumping Morgan. Now Tony Gillig is on the bubble at 6.986.
Left Lane: Bruce Allen Runs 6.946/198.47, Now #4
Best prior run: 6.972/198.44, Was #11
Right Lane: Scott Geoffrion Runs 6.956/197.42, Now #9
Best prior run: 6.963/197.36, Was #9
Two more nice runs, the Reher-Morrison red-white-and-blue car running well
as well as looking good.
Left Lane: Richie Stevens Runs 6.927/197.22, Now #2
Best prior run: 6.947/197.13, Was #6
Right Lane: Tom Hammonds Runs 7.647/139.60, Now #21
Best prior run: 7.046/194.83, Was #21
Stevens suffered a DNQ at Denver, but this run should keep him well in the
field here, a stout 1.015 60-foot time and a nice run. Hammonds spun the tires on
the launch.
Left Lane: Hurley Blakeney Runs 10.638/82.02, Now #20
Best prior run: 7.034/196.76, Was #19
Right Lane: Tom Martino Runs 6.954/198.20, Now #9
Best prior run: 8.083/124.59, Was #24
Martino shook hard on his first attempt today. Here he made a solid pass,
smooth and straight. Blakeney sat at the tree for a while and then made a slow
pass. We'll be down for a couple minutes while they install sunshades on the
tree, the setting sun right in the drivers' eyes.
Left Lane: Rickie Smith Runs 6.959/196.99, Now #12
Best prior run: 6.963/197.22, Was #12
Right Lane: Kurt Johnson Runs 6.915/199.61, Now #1
Best prior run: 13.934/53.87, Was #26
Nice pass by Kurt after a rather leisurely 1.045 60-foot time, leaving Smith
well back after a 1.025 60-foot time.
Left Lane: Mike Thomas Runs 6.984/196.47, Now #18
Best prior run: 7.232/195.68, Was #25
Right Lane: Allen Johnson Runs 6.929/197.48, Now #4
Best prior run: 6.979/196.79, Was #15
Nice run by AJ to put a Dodge near the top of the field.
Left Lane: J.R. Carr Runs 7.110/193.93, Now #25
Best prior run: 7.164/193.05, Was #25
Right Lane: Ron Krisher Runs 6.912/198.96, Now #1
Best prior run: 6.936/198.96, Was #6
Bob Frey is having fun predicting #1 runs - and he's right on the money
again for Krisher off a 1.025-second short time.
Left Lane: Terry Adams Runs 7.013/195.51, Now #23
Best prior run: 11.596/75.85, Was #26
Right Lane: John Geyer Runs 6.984/197.10, Now #18
Best prior run: 7.042/191.10, Was #23
Robert Patrick held the bump spot these two were aiming for - a 6.979.
Geyer comes up 0.002 seconds short.
Left Lane: Tony Gillig Runs 6.963/197.16, Now #16
Best prior run: 6.986/196.64, Was #20
Right Lane: Robert Patrick Runs 6.959/197.36, Now #13
Best prior run: 6.979/196.47, Was #16
Gillig replaces Patrick on the bubble, and Patrick moves up the ladder.
The loser? V. Gaines, who was bumped.
Left Lane: Jim Yates Runs 6.929/198.93, Now #5
Best prior run: 6.954/198.23, Was #10
Right Lane: V. Gaines Runs 6.941/198.20, Now #8
Best prior run: 6.973/196.76, Was #17
And Gaines repays the favor, bumping Gillig. That leaves Darrell Alderman
on the bubble for tomorrow, the bubble time a 6.961. The sixteen-car field spans
just 0.049 seconds with two qualifying sessions left.

KENT, Wash. - SUMMIT FastNews - Notes from round 3 qualifying in Pro Stock at the

Best prior run: 6.946/198.47, Was #9
11:45 AM We open the third session with Darrell Alderman on the bump at
6.961. Conditions look very good, but aren't quite as good as they were for
yesterday's second session, so don't look for many changes in the
field.
Allen's car launched with the wheels up and got out of the groove,
so he shut it down.
Left Lane: Scott Geoffrion Runs 6.957/197.31, Now #13
Best prior run: 6.956/197.42, Was #13
Right Lane: Richie Stevens Runs 6.951/197.45, Now #4

Best prior run: 6.915/199.61, Was #2
Right Lane: Mike Thomas Runs 9.418/99.24, Now #21
Best prior run: 6.984/196.47, Was #21
Thomas launched, shook, and shut down. KJ posts another big speed, but
loses 0.04 seconds in elapsed time.
Left Lane: Allen Johnson Runs 6.966/196.85, Now #6
Best prior run: 6.929/197.48, Was #6
Right Lane: J.R. Carr Runs 11.828/75.45, Now #26
Best prior run: 7.110/193.93, Was #26
Carr shook hard and called it off.
Left Lane: Ron Krisher Runs 6.907/199.32, Now #1
Best prior run: 6.912/198.96, Was #1
Right Lane: Terry Adams Runs 7.821/130.30, Now #24
Best prior run: 7.013/195.51, Was #24
Wow! Everyone else is backing up a few hundredths and Krisher improves by
about the same amount as the others are slowing down. Talk about psyching your
opponents!
Left Lane: John Geyer Runs 6.975/196.82, Now #18
Best prior run: 6.984/197.10, Was #20
Right Lane: Tony Gillig Runs 7.006/196.16, Now #17
Best prior run: 6.963/197.16, Was #17

Right Lane: Jim Yates Runs 6.933/198.90, Now #5
Best prior run: 6.929/198.93, Was #5
Patrick improves 0.016 seconds and moves five rungs up the ladder.
Left Lane: V. Gaines Runs 6.945/197.83, Now #9
Best prior run: 6.941/198.20, Was #8
Right Lane: Warren Johnson Runs 6.921/199.32, Now #4
Best prior run: 6.951/198.44, Was #12
WJ makes an impressive improvement this round, but cannot match Krisher's
stunning run.
Left Lane: Troy Coughlin Runs 6.936/198.90, Now #8
Best prior run: 6.931/198.52, Was #8
Right Lane: Darrell Alderman Runs 6.935/198.26, Now #9
Best prior run: 6.961/197.05, Was #16
Alderman moves way up the ladder and sets up a possible first-round match
with Troy in eliminations. Now it's "Tricky Rickie" Smith on the bubble with a
6.959.
Left Lane: Brad Jeter Runs 6.973/197.74, Now #19
Best prior run: 6.981/197.22, Was #19
Right Lane: George Marnell Runs 6.968/197.83, Now #18
Best prior run: 6.991/196.67, Was #23
Not quite...
Left Lane: Larry Morgan Runs 6.973/198.64, Now #19
Best prior run: 6.989/198.09, Was #23
Right Lane: Jeg Coughlin Runs 6.917/198.76, Now #3
Best prior run: 6.920/197.94, Was #3
Nice pass by Jeg, staying third on the ladder but improving in a round where
most lost ground. Morgan also stepped up, but was still out of the field. That's
it, the final qualifying session will open with Smith on the bubble at 6.959
seconds and Krisher "Krushing" the field with a 6.907, the field still very tight
with a 0.052 second gap between first and sixteenth.

KENT, Wash. - SUMMIT FastNews - Notes from final, round 4 qualifying in Pro Stock
at the 13th annual Prolong Super Lubricants Northwest Nationals Presented by NAPA
listing lane, driver 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 Thomas Runs 7.201/165.36, Now #23
Best prior run: 6.984/196.67, Was #23
Right Lane: Tom Martino Runs 7.044/196.87, Now #14
Best prior run: 6.954/198.20, Was #14
5:46 PM The track is hot and slick, so don't look for any new records or
many changes. The bump is Rickie Smith's 6.959.
Left Lane: J.R. Carr Runs 7.260/191.92, Now #26
Best prior run: 7.110/193.93, Was #26
Right Lane: Kurt Johnson Runs 7.009/197.74, Now #2
Best prior run: 6.915/199.61, Was #2
Looks like this session is as much as a tenth of a second slower than
earlier sessions.
Left Lane: Tony Gillig Runs 7.031/195.28, Now #17
Best prior run: 6.963/197.16, Was #17
Right Lane: Allen Johnson Runs 7.069/194.60, Now #7

Left Lane: Jim Yates Runs 6.978/196.79, Now #6
Best prior run: 6.929/198.93, Was #6
Right Lane: Ron Krisher Runs 6.976/198.03, Now #1
Best prior run: 6.907/199.32, Was #1
Yates runs right with Krisher this session - and that makes Yates' chances
for tomorrow look pretty good. But Krisher got out of the groove a bit, to the
left, so his run isn't as good a barometer as usual.
Left Lane: Warren Johnson Runs 6.932/198.26, Now #4
Best prior run: 6.921/199.32, Was #4
Right Lane: John Geyer Runs 8.119/119.31, Now #21
Best prior run: 6.975/196.82, Was #21
WJ drops jaws all over the pits, running four hundredths quicker than
Krisher this session. Geyer shook and gave it up.
Left Lane: Darrell Alderman Runs 6.961/196.79, Now #9
Best prior run: 6.935/198.26, Was #9
Right Lane: Robert Patrick Runs 7.016/196.04, Now #11

Pawuk makes a very consistent run, all four runs in the 6.90s and the last
three at 6.947, 6.962, and 6.954 under very different conditions. The 6.954 is
the second-quickest of this session so far.

Hammonds was the final driver with a chance to knock Rickie Smith out of the
field. Hammonds makes his best run of the weekend, but comes up short of Smith's
6.959 and will be a spectator tomorrow. That's it, no changes in the field this
session.

take much with these cars,
(W) Richie Stevens (Valspar Refinish '00 Firebir0.514 6.963 196.47
(L) Bruce Allen (Reher-Morrison '00 Firebird) 0.440 8.189 123.75

Results for Final Round
|
KENT, Wash. - SUMMIT FastNews - Results of final, round 4 eliminations in
Pro Stock at the 13th annual Prolong Super Lubricants Northwest Nationals
Presented by NAPA:
W/L Driver RT ET Speed
(W) Richie Stevens (Valspar Refinish '00 Firebir0.482 7.018 195.70
(L) Jeg Coughlin (Jeg's Mail Order '97 Cutlass) 0.455 7.498 146.00
3:55 PM The first of the Professional final rounds sees Stevens put
Coughlin in the less-favored lane and then Coughlin won the battle of the starting
line. But the track is 1,320 feet long and Coughlin got out of shape in the
middle of the run, allowing Stevens to parlay three consecutive 7.01-second
elapsed times into his third national event win, his last win coming at
Englishtown in 1999. He had to get around two Coughlin brothers in the final two
rounds to do it, so it was no cakewalk. Congratulations to the Valspar team for
the victory.
