Brian Dubbs is Top Beaver

Brian Dubbs picked up the top Beaver title over Modified champ, Steve Hull in a close one 9.65 on a 9.61 to Steve's 13.09 on a 13.06.

Brian picked up the semi's win over a red hot Bob Klock when Bob went red.

Steve is out and gone with a great 13.07 on a 13.06 over Bill Bair's 'Busa to win his semi's race in Top Beaver. It was both Steve's and Bill first ever title!!

TOO HOT!!! and it showed. The Beaver ran a quick show to get everyone out of the dangerous 100 degree temperature. Two time shots and go!!

Hemi John Simbeck was looking like a repeat winner in top but an off pace
9.31 on a 9.22 wasn't good enough to stop Dubbs 9.62 on a 9.55.

Brian kept his McCracken Big Block altered in front of Josh Rietscha's Ford
to take the 1/4 finals win with a 9.564 on a 9.57 to Josh's 7.914 on a 7.93.

Steve Miller's Camaro took a tight 1/4 finals win over Brian Pecht's Vega

Jason Derr was looking good in time shots but a tricky track cost him in round one.

Mike McCracken debuted his new dragster running 8.01. He lost to points leader, Brian Vollman in round one. Yes, he still has his sharp `66 Nova.

Brian Vollman is now only one point ahead of the pack in Top ET.

Bill Bair picked up his first ever Bike title on his clean Hayabusa over points leader, King Ed Fetterolf with a 9.22 on a 9.19 at 143.72 MPH.

Busa battle: Bob Newton, near, fouled a first round win to Brian Snyder. Brian ripped off a 9.93 on a 10.05 after seeing the bulb. Slow times were due to the heat.

Mike Boyer has been on fire lately but Dave Carpenter picked up the win when
Mike drew a foul with a -.011 and ran a 9.75 on a 9.66.

Carp blast off for the win over Mike Boyer.

King Ed Fetterolf still has a good size lead in Bike with a runner up to Bill Bair.

Daryl Walter drew a -.017 foul against "The King" in round one.

1st Modified title ever for Steve Hull's Gladiator Camaro over a tough Dave Novinger. Steve was not to be denied cutting a .026 light and running a 13.078 on a 13.06 to win.

In a classic battle between the Beaver's senior Modified racers, (over 60 years old) Jim Holland's GTO dropped Dick  Kuhlman in round two.

Dave Novinger ended Blase Raia's hold on the Modified winner's circle with a
second round win as he forced Blase to run out with a 9.10 on a 9.15.

Gary Enders stopped number two man, Doug Kline's Hemi Road Runner in round two with a 11.41 on a 11.39 to Doug's late 11.56 on a 11.56. Ouch!!

Modified hitters Dave Novinger and Cliff Eicher.

Street finals was a fight of champions with 2007 points champ, Bob Klock picking up the win over Dale Rhoads Mustang when he ran a 12.34 on a 12.33 to Dale's 12.53 on a 12.49. Bob is in the hunt for the title again.

Dwight Shelly dropped in the first round with traction problems. Look for that to change as he was the recipient of a new pair of slicks from Brian and Michelle of Brian's trailer Sales in Lewistown.

Prediction: Brent Noll is going to be a force in Street Eliminator. It's just a matter of time until this Rookie has his day. What a sharp car.

Jackie Kohr had her Dart running a little too good as she ran out with a
13.27 on a 13.29 against Dale Rhoads `66 Mustang.

Michelle Miller is really on a roll with yet another semi-finals showing losing to veteran Dale Rhoads. She now stands in 5th place in points. 

TCR veteran Cody Smith, got a lesson in round one of Street when Michelle Miller
put her Nova right on the number. with a 12.143 on a 12.14.

Dan Baker was yet another victim of Dale Rhoads Mustang when he fouled with
a -.004 to the 302 in round two.

Gunned down: Dave 'Gunner' Miller was shot out of the saddle by Michelle Orwig in round one of Street.

Brian Vollman watches wife, Sue, take out former IHRA Bracket Finals Champion, Dennis Mull in round one of Street. Sue fell in the 1/4 finals to Bob Klock.

Billy Nees lost to Klock in the second round with a 14.35 on a 14.33 to Bob's on the number 12.22 on a 12.22 and a .042 to .051 light. Close again!!

 Hot Rod trophy is a tough class at the Beaver.

 Miranda Miller is out of the gate and heading for the win over Megan Clarks' Camaro.
Both drivers are former TCR drivers eliminator winners. No wonder their so tough.

Johnna Crone talked her friend Brandy Conner into joining the fun in TCR. Brandy had the car dialed in as she ran right on her dial with a 13.45 on a 13.45 but a late light gave the win to Melissa Klock. That's still real good for the first day.

Girl power: Carly Smith picked up a first round win over Valerie Hagens with her Cougar as she ran a 10.99 on a 11.00 to Val's 12.05 on a 12.09.

The Repozest team came out with a victory as Cody Gibson defeated Cait Holland with a 8.21 on a 8.10 when Cait went red with a -.082 foul.
