Kevin Helms' MOV: 0.0493 seconds (approximately 9 feet).

Tosto is new to the game and has come a long way this year! Helms sacrificed a bullet. He said it locked up after the scales.
Hello spun rod bearing. Good thing he had a spare bullet and his brother Scott to help him make the eliminator.

Almost identical RT's and Jim Waldo takes the close win. MOV: 0.0365 seconds (approximately 7 feet).

Great lights and Jason McCormack wins with a hole shot. MOV: 0.0033 seconds (approximately 8 inches).

One of the best races here. Last year’s Champ, Brett McFarland gives it a great ride,
But Jason has all he can handle and then some.

Final Round

Jason knew he was late and knew the chase was futile. Congrats!

This is what makes the A stick Challenge so great. So many things have to go right to get a great run out of these cars! Thanks to the many supporters and sponsers that appreciate these racers and their cars!

Jim Waldo takes over 1,000 in cash and prizes and thats not bad at all. Tie that in with a win with at Indy with another of his son's and you have a pretty nice week of racing. Congratulations!
