Five hours and fifteen minutes of track time was in the books, and only forty five minutes remained. Nearly everybody left in the lanes really needed this run to establish a time to move on, or to improve upon an earlier run. Glenn Hunter Jr. had spent a ton of money and time converting his famous Whipple charged 56 Chevy Belair over to twin turbos in an effort to finally gain a better foothold on the Pro Street Power Adder Class. Glenn has ran in that class at five previous Drag Weeks, with one 2nd place, and 3 3rd place finishes while dropping his average times from 8.75 in 2010 to 8.41 in 2014.
He ran a high 7 Sunday night but had not been able to get ahold of the track earlier, now he had one shot to try and keep pace with Matt's Dart and McGilton's ZL-1. Both of whom had turned in 7's and were on the road to Indy already. With the pressure on, he logged an 8.013-183 to keep him within range of the two class leaders. Twenty minutes later, he was asking the announcers to put the word out that he needed an internally balanced flex plate for a BBC...it was going to be a long night for Glenn.
