Race 2 & 3 Update with points
This past weekend we had had our second and third races of the 2018 season for the United Engine and Machine Arizona Stock/Super Stock Association at Tucson Dragway. Race 2 was presented by Bill Nelson’s Automotive and race 3 was brought to us by Tucson Asphalt. We had 19 cars for race 2 on Saturday and 16 cars stuck around for race 3 on Sunday. We want to thank everyone for coming out and supporting these races despite the questionable forecast!
Saturday’s #1 qualifier was Al Corda with his .003 light, and Sunday’s was Mike Graham with his .006 reaction time. Both earned a Gold Shine Kit and California Car Duster from California Car Cover for their efforts.
Al Corda continued his winning ways in his B/SA Camaro when he won both events this weekend. He defeated a red lighting Roy Cracraft in his FSS/B Copo Camaro in the finals of Bill Neslon’s Automotive race #2 and Andy Kimball in his D/S Fairlane in the finals of Tucson Asphalt race #3. Al gets a custom fit car cover from California Car Cover for each of his wins.
Brad Hawk was the lone semifinalist on Saturday in his L/SA Mustang. Ryan Smith and Andy Kimball also finished in the money by making it to the quarter finals. With one semifinalist, Ryan earned semifinalist pay in his N/SA Malibu Wagon as the best losing package in the quarter finals.
Sunday had Brian Schultz in his E/SA Duster and Brad Hawk losing in the semifinals when Brian was defeated by Andy Kimball and Brad by Al Corda.
