Sorry Bob, Tony didn't make it thru this round...

 

Winners in Round Four


#26 Jerry Hatch


Only one Mopar left in Stock..... One more round scheduled for today.....

 

Rat'sssssssss

 

No Mopars made it thru this round of Stock Eliminator...

Jerry Hatch made the long tow from Maine to loose on a red light in round 5.... Tuff way to lose but at least he made it thru 4 rounds... More stock action in two weeks... Till then.......

 

That sucks. But then if you don't red light once in a while your not trying hard enough

 

You are so right!!!!!

 

that just shows how tuff drag racing is. BUT THE Hemi Cuda is STILL the fastest super stock car.
