In just its second race in competition – and first in Switzer Dynamics Pro Nitrous – Jim Halsey ’ s brandnew Fulton-powered “ Daddy Shark ” ’ 68 Camaro carried Halsey to a new E . T . national record to qualify No . 1 . He ran a 3.608-second pass in qualifying , then backed it up on his way to a semifinal exit . Longtime Big Dog Shootout standout Brian Shrader raced to his first-ever Pro Nitrous victory , using a 3.657 to beat Halsey in the semis and a 3.654 to beat Fredy Scriba ’ s 3.667 in the final . It was an all-Hayes-built , all-Musipowered final with a firsttime winner guaranteed . Shrader in his ’ 17 Corvette and Scriba in his brand-new ’ 69 Camaro proved they ’ re here to win . |
Electrifying is the best way to describe WS Construction Pro Boost presented by P2 Contracting and Ty-Drive at the season opener . Todd “ King Tut ” Tutterow returned to the top of the class in Justin Smith ’ s new screw-blown Quik Fuel ’ 69 Camaro . Tutterow qualified No . 2 in one of the quickest fields of all time , then laid down a 3.607 to beat Jason Harris and his 3.564 on a holeshot in the final round . Harris , the reigning world champ , qualified fifth and stayed in the 3.50s on race day in his ProCharged “ Party Time ” ’ 69 Camaro . WSOPM winner Derek Ward qualified No . 1 with a record-setting 3.555 and raced to a semifinal exit in his screw-blown ’ 68 Firebird . |
The champ is back ! Twotime Liberty ’ s Gears Extreme Pro Stock presented by AED Competition world champion Johnny Pluchino qualified No . 5 in his Kaase-powered Feather-Lite Batteries ’ 13 Mustang before a race day that included a perfect light in the first round and round wins over Randi Lyn Butner , No . 1 qualifier JR Carr , and 2018 world champ Steven Boone in the final . Boone qualified second in his Allen-powered ’ 07 Cobalt and ran quicker than Pluchino in the first two rounds , but slowed to a 4.125 in the final , while Pluchino ran a 4.052 . Carr showed up to chase the first 3-second run , but came close with a 4.029 to qualify No . 1 in the Elitepowered JHG ’ 20 Camaro . |
Andy House and Carson Perry paired up in the first pair of the first Pro 632 qualifying session because they ’ d never competed in the class before . Just over 24 hours later , they squared off in the final round . Perry qualified No . 2 in Jack Gaddy ’ s Albert-powered ’ 69 Camaro , but went red by . 018 in the final . House qualified No . 11 in Meade Baldwin ’ s Southern Diamond Company ’ 69 Camaro but came alive on race day , running a career-best 4.146 in the final . Amber Franklin , the 2022 world champion , qualified No . 1 in her Musipowered “ OG Jungle Rat ” ’ 69 Camaro and set low E . T . of the first two rounds before losing on a slight holeshot in the semis . |
It ’ s not that anyone doubted Menscer Motorsports Pro Street presented by Afco Racing phenom Scott Kincaid , but a fifth consecutive win in his screw-blown ’ 69 Camaro seemed unlikely . Kincaid did just that , though , setting low E . T . of the last three rounds , including a 3.947 to beat Tim Essick ’ s 3.987 in the final to stay undefeated in Pro Street . Essick , a twotime world champ , qualified fourth in his ProCharged “ Brown Sugar ” ’ 18 Mustang and was just a tick behind Kincaid all day . Ron Green in his ProCharged ’ 00 Firebird nearly set a new E . T . record with his No . 1-qualified 3.894 and went a few rounds but ran out of steam in the semis . |
