RACE #1 RESULTS

Pro Tree Series Race #1 Greenfield Dragway July 8, 2012 presented by Trans World Distributing

After much anticipation from the heads up racers, race #1 of the Pro Tree Series was contested this past weekend at Greenfield Dragway. Our race was scheduled to be run on the Saturday but with a late start due to rain the program was pushed to Sunday giving the racers some extra time to dial in their cars.

The car count was just under 30 cars with 28 cars showing up to make their qualifying passes, eight in Hot Rod (10.90), nine in Super Rod (9.90), and eleven in Quick Rod (8.90). After two qualifying attempts, the number one qualifiers were Jason MacNeil 10.906, Brian Mansfield 9.918, and James Cowie 8.911. It was great to see not only the more experienced racers in these classes taking part, but also some racers trying the heads up racing for the first time. A big thank you goes out to Greenfield Dragway for giving us the opportunity to run this series at their track, and also for fitting us into the regular Sunday program. We also had some help in the staging lanes from Mike and Pat making sure the cars were paired up and ready to go.....thanks guys!

Congratulations to the winners in each of the classes. In Hot Rod, the series organizer Berny Corscadden was ready with a .003 light and got the win over a very tough Jason MacNeil. The Super Rod final saw Kevin Lively winning over a broken Barrett Bonnar and the Quick Rod final saw Trevor Cowie taking out Lorne Buchanan for the title. The King of the Hill was not contested due to a shortage of time, and all three class winners agreed to split the King of the Hill money. It was a great turnout for our first event, with many racers travelling a great distance to be part of it. Thanks to everyone who took part, we are looking forward to race #2 at Cape Breton Dragway the weekend of July 21-22. See you all there!

[Kelly MacKay]

it was a good showing as the IHRA in EDMONTON only had 13 hot rod,7 quick rod and 14 super rods this weekend.maybe IHRA should come to the maritimes and have a race.
