NHRA - National Hot Rod Association

Not much makes up for losing in the final round of the Chevrolet Performance U.S. Nationals, but for David Billingsley, a win in St. Louis is a good start. Billingsley, in his I/AA Camaro, stopped Travis Gusso in the Comp final round. Billingsley grabbed a big advantage at the start with a near-perfect .008 light and held on for the victory with a (-.487) 8.123. Billingsley’s road to the final round also included victories against Ray Skillman, Chase Williams, points contender Craig Bourgeois, and two-time world champion Bruno Massel.
