Rachael took her first round single, and ran 11.743-113.8, her opponent was scheduled to be a blue 86 Mustang with a 9.50-144 best, but he didn't show for some reason.

Dale's first round opponent was Clark, and his blue Barracuda. Dale decided the proper thing to do would be to run Clark without his N20. It nearly bit him, as he had already retarded the timing to 18 degrees total for the big hit! The Gremlin labored out of the hole, and didn't really start pulling away from the small block until the eighth mile. Below is Dale and Clark's run, as well as Boone's.
