A red-light decided the Super Comp final after Lauren Freer left .002-second too soon, but that may not have mattered because Billy Upton put together one of the best packages of the event with a .012 light and an 8.906 for his fourth career win. Upton previously won in Reading in 2009 and back-to-back Atlanta titles in 2012-13. Upton’s worst light of eliminations was a .027, and Freer made four runs between 8.908 and 8.917 on race day, setting the stage for an extremely competitive final round.
