➤ TOMMY HOSKINSON ➤ MALCOLM RICKS in his Gen 2 Garage Ford Falcon and Burch in the Motion Raceworks“ El Toro” Mustang raced down the track side-by-side until the win light popped up in Hoskinson’ s lane.
“ You don’ t want to go out first round, but we made an awesome pass first round, took out a really tough competitor, and then it was just a domino effect,” Hoskinson said.“ I didn’ t lose on the tree a single time this weekend. The car did exactly what I told it to do all weekend. We were jiving. I expected my win light to come on every pass. I didn’ t think anybody could beat me, and the confidence was just through the roof. We felt like underdogs a little bit, but we’ ve won some races locally at home, some 5.30 races, all year. We went a lot of rounds and I felt like this was a big stage, I felt like I deserved to be here, and I felt like we did a really good job of proving it.”
LIMITED DRAG RADIAL ➤ After setting a class E. T. record and winning in PDRA Pro Street on 33x10.5 slicks, Brian Weddle made the switch to Limited Drag Radial
January / February 2026 this season and quickly found the winner’ s circle at the Snowbirds. Weddle’ s screw-blown“ La Flama”’ 67 Camaro was locked into the 3.90s throughout race day, sending him into the final round with lane choice. There, he left first against past LDR season champion Shane Stack and fired off a 3.932 at 186.87 to get a decisive $ 7,500 win over Stack, who lifted to a 4.960 at 101.28 in his turbocharged“ Thrillbilly”’ 86 Monte Carlo.
ULTRA STREET ➤ Ultra Street finalists Joel Greathouse and Brian Keep seemed evenly paired after their semifinal victories, but Greathouse pulled ahead in the $ 7,500 final round. Driving Davey Hull’ s turbocharged’ 90 Mustang, Greathouse left the line just ahead of Keep before running a 4.460 at 153.72 to defeat Keep’ s 4.565 at 154.65 in his ProCharged’ 98 Camaro.
In the bracket racing classes, victories went to Hunter Patton in Super Pro, Malcolm Ricks in 6.50 Index, Peyton Shook in 7.50 Index, and Jeff Jones in 4.60 Bikes. DI
