J M Hallas’ IHRA Nitro Jam at San Antonio Raceway report

After a very successful day one with the return of IHRA’s Nitro Jam show to San Antonio Raceway, day two brought cloudy, humid conditions, with occasional mist in the air, which made for tricky tuning conditions. One more round of qualifying was held for the sportsmen classes before the beginning of eliminations on the 1/4 mile drag strip, just east of San Antonio.

By mid-afternoon the sun started finally breaking through changing track conditions for drivers through the middle of eliminations. The temperatures weren’t enough to effect the first round of Pro Class qualifying later in the evening, especially after yesterday’s near record breaking heat.

By the time IHRA Nitro Jam’s Pro qualifying began the stands were filled to capacity, more were hanging on the fences on both sides of the track, with the spectator side nearly reaching the entire length of the quarter mile.

Nitro Jam Pro Eliminations

Top Fuel

Bobby Lagana jr. clicked off an .084 light then ran a 4.70 at over 300 mph, while last nights winner, Bruce Litton shut off nearly as soon as he left the line when he broke the tires loose, while Lagana was running straight through.

“I’m just excited to be back here,” said Lagana, driver of the Lucas Oil, Service Central, Fram, Autolite, MavTv, Top Fuel Dragster. “I’ve got a lot of memories of this track, to be honest not a lot of good ones. Our first year here it was so cold our clutch system froze. We were shooting for between 4.65-4.75 and it ran a 4.70 even after I shut it off early. I hit the rev limiter and shut it off expecting Bruce(Litton) to go by us, but he had his own problems. We had a little drama in the shut down area. My chute got caught on a light tower and flipped it over nearly tipping the car over. It was crazy down there. I saw a big flash, people running and thought, this isn’t good.

“We had a fresh motor in it round one, but something didn’t feel right. So we changed back between rounds to a motor that we were sure about. We were able to use last nights run, but we were detuned too much so we knew were we needed to step up to. Bruce(Litton) and I are essentially match racing, but we both know what the track can hold and that leaves it up to us. He’s beat us on hole shots several times, he’s great competitor. I love those guys over there. We run neck and neck.

“The fan turnout was incredible. We did some morning TV shows and people would see us at IHOP or WalMart and come up to us. That was one of the most successful media things we’ve done. Those same people came down and hung out it the pits with us. Everything was a big hit. The fans here were absolutely awesome. I can’t wait to come back here next year. The fans were great and I think we put on a good show. That is our goal.

“ I’m really pleased with the way IHRA is going. Mr Feld is keeping a lot of us in business. They’re talking about bringing in some more Top Fuel cars. We’re basically swapping money from what we win with what it costs to run the car. But it keeps us in the spotlight, in the media and more importantly learning more and more. We’re roadies anyway, we never go home. We live on the road and just go racing.”

Bobby Lagana jr, 4.707 @ 301.41
Bruce Litton, 15.533 @ 58.98

Pro Fuel Finals

As soon as the green came on it was Mike Manners race. Evans’ car went silent while Manners was clicking off a pass of 5.28 at 274+ mph. Tonight’s win made it two for two, backing up last nights victory.

“We had a wonderful night,” exclaimed Manners driver of the Anglia Homes, Cosmo Development, Aquagen, Spitzer Body & Chassis. “It’s a shame Bill(Evans) broke. We love racing him. He’s one of the best guy out there. We like going down the track side by side, hopefully I’m the winner. We’re real happy with our return to San Antonio. We got the Ironman both nights and it can’t get any better than that.

“We were a little disappointed with the 5.38 we ran in round one. We were expecting the car to go quite a bit faster. Then we ended up with Bill in the second round, you can never count that man out. He was running good numbers yesterday and today. We went back, looked at some things, found some things that needed adjustment, tuned it up a little and were able to run a good number in the finals.”

“ I’ve been here a few times before running Top Dragster and Top Sportsman but not for about four years. There’s nothing we could bring from those cars to these, it’s a totally different animal. These tracks can be different day to day anyway let alone four years later. The track was really good. We looked at it and thought it might be a little soft. It was really deceptive.

“We have a baseline that we can go off of, and try to factor in the track conditions. Every day is racing the track. With these races on Friday night and Saturday night, there are some similarities.

“I got started at this at a late age, but I’ve got no attention span, so this works out great. People ask me what I’m going to do when I grow up? I tell them, drive Monster Trucks and line all these A/Fuel cars up, that are so hard to drive, and crush ‘em all!”

By the way, Manners is 55.

Prostalgia Funny Car Final

Rick Krafft, who got into the finals with a late birthday present, after Mike McIntire was DQ’ed for crossing the center line, used a good light(.054) and decent run(5.95) to hold off Mark Sanders for the victory.

** Peter Gallen used round two to back up his speed record from last night(252.10), and increase the ET record with last night’s run as the back up.

“It’s absolutely incredible.” said Krafft driver of the Chicago Fire Prostalgia Funny Car owned by Mike Faser. “The first run the car got to half track and was shaking bad. I was doing everythng I could to hold the car down the groove and get the win. But we came up short. On a technicality we ended up in the finals.

“ So here we are in the finals against Mark Sanders, one of the fastest cars out here. My guys are telling me to put percentage in it, throw more clutch at it, do this, do that. I told them to wait, let’s do some little things and I’ll get him off the line. I took him off the light and beat him.

“I’ve never been to Texas before, let alone run this track. Having a baseline to go off means you know what you have when you roll the car off the trailer. We’ve got a new oiling system that’s been giving us problems. So we weren’t sure what it was going to do. These are the first two complete runs we’ve made without hurting any parts. So we’re absolutely elated.

“ I don’t know how he(Faser) does it. Somehow he keeps us out there. IHRA has given us the opportunity to show we can still get it done, and here we are winning with it. That car was built in 1974 and probably has 10,000 runs on it, and a bunch of different bodies. We just keep upgrading and making improvements on it.

“This trip has been a great experience. The track was good and IHRA had it prepped well. The stands were packed and that says a lot about pre-race advertising. We couldn’t have asked for a better show.”

Sportsmen Finals

Between red lights and break outs there were so many gifts given away you’d have thought it was Christmas. Nine out of the eleven finals were decided by one or the other fouls occurring. Three drivers had chances to pick up double wins(Ryan McDonnell, David Latino and Tommy Phillips), only two were successful.

Top Dragster

Jenifer White worked her way to the finals by putting World Champion, Scott Ball out in round two. Gordon Cole had to get by fast qualifier Ed Schneider in round three to reach the finals. Gordon nearly pegged his dial with a 7.11 on 7.10 while White gave up too much running a 6.65 on a 6.58

Gordon Cole, 7.111 @ 183.82

Top Sportsman

Trent Wilson picked up the win before green when number two qualifier, Glenn Wright went red. Wilson would have been tough to beat running a 7.472 on 7.47 dial in.

Quick Rod(8.90)

Tommy Phillips picked up the first of two wins in the finals after Gina Mundt broke out. Phillips turned a 8.91 on the index while Mundt put up a 8.87.

Tommy Phillips, 8.918 @ 158.51
Gina Mundt, 8.876 @ 159.24

Super Rod(9.90)

Phillips snagged his second Ironman of the evening on yet another gift from Kip Guenzel as he was too fast. Phillips 9.92 was good enough after Guenzel ran a 9.89.

Tommy Phillips, 9.926 @ 145.63
Kip Guenzel, 9.890 @ 151.46

Hot Rod(10.90)

The first or worst rule came into play for the Hot Rod finals when both drivers ran over the index. Deborah Ridenhour’s 10.87 was better than top qualifier, Ray Todd’s 10.86 giving Ridenhour the trophy.

David Latino rebounded in the Stock finals to get the win over Kirk Morgan who went red. Luckily for Latino the red was first as he ran over his dial in with a 10.61 on a 10.67.

Electronics

Drag racing can be measured in tenths, hundredths, sometimes even thousandths of seconds, but Phillip Pennington found out it can go even farther when he gave Ryan McDonnell the victory breaking out by 5/10,000th turning a 7.5095 on a 7.51. McDonnell may not have needed the help hitting a .002 light, then running a 7.50 on a 7.49 dial in.

Ryan McDonnell, 7.504 @ 168.67
Phillip Pennington, 7.509 @ 174.42

Footbrake

The Mustang of RJ Doerr got the victory in Footbrake after Rick Hudel went red. Good thing for Doerr who popped a .003 light then ran a 10.67 on a 10.70 dial in and would have broken out.

Gary Wright holds on to win ASCS Gulf South feature at Speedarama

Gary Wright picked up his second overall American Sprint Car Series Regional feature win of the year by limping to the checkered flag in Saturday night’s 25-lap Smiley’s Racing Products ASCS Gulf South Region main event at the Speedarama Raceway.

Working forward from the ninth starting position in his familiar No. 9, Wright raced into the lead on the 15th circuit and then slipped across the finish line in command moments after a piston failure in his powerplant.

Wright claimed the victory just in front of eleventh-starter Jason Johnson, who charged past George White in the final corner for runner-up honors. With a broken steering box, White tagged the wall and flipped across the finish line to claim the show position and assume the ASCS Gulf South points lead.

With the red flag flying with checkered as White flipped, the balance of the field was scored on the previous lap with Scottie McDonald in fourth and Jeffrey Newell posting his first career top-five ASCS finish by rounding out the top five.

Tommy Bryant was sixth, with defending series champion Ray Allen Kulhanek, 15th-starter Travis Rilat, Brandon Berryman and pole starter Chris Sweeney completing the top ten.

Aaron Reutzel, Bryant, McDonald and Newell topped heat race action, with Travis Rilat winning the “B” Main.

Aaron Reutzel rules ASCS Gulf South at Heart O’ Texas

Leading Brodix Rookie of the Year contender Aaron Reutzel took full advantage of an idle weekend for the Lucas Oil ASCS National series by racing to victory lane in Friday night’s 30-lap Smiley’s Racing Products ASCS Gulf South Region main event at Heart O’ Texas Speedway.

The 20-year-old from Clute, TX, made a late-race move around Brandon Berryman for the lead to claim his second career ASCS Gulf South triumph aboard Kenny Reutzel’s Simpson Race Products No. 87 Triple-X, this one worth $3,000.

While 2009 Gulf South champ Reutzel took the green flag from the sixth starting position, it was two-time series champ Brandon Berryman leading most of the way after starting from the pole. Berryman briefly surrendered the lead on the seventh lap to Jason Johnson, who then jumped the cushion and spun to a stop.

As the laps wound down, Reutzel and Channin Tankersley battled past Berryman on the 22nd circuit only to have Tankersley tangle with a lapped car and get upside down.

With Berryman back up front on the restart, Reutzel kept the pressure on until taking command with just three rounds to go. Reutzel raced on to the checkered flag in front of Berryman, with George White racing into the show position after starting 12th.

Reigning Lucas Oil ASCS National champion Jason Johnson rebounded from his early miscue to salvage fourth, with defending ASCS Gulf South champion Ray Allen Kulhanek rounding out the top five. Claud Estes was sixth, with Martin Edwards, Chris Coker, Gary Watson and Tommy Bryant completing the top ten.

Johnson, Tankersley, Ryan Hall, Berryman and Watson topped heat race action for the 37-car field, with Evan Pardo and Bryant winning the “B” Mains.

After turning over in heat race action, Travis Rilat fell one spot short of a transfer in “B” Main action.
