VEGAS NOTEBOOK - MIKE EDWARDS MAKES FOUR IN A ROW

edwards mikeMike Edwards will lead the Pro Stock field Sunday at the SummitRacing.com Nationals, continuing his qualifying dominance. He has been top qualifier at each of the season's four events. But he still is looking for that first victory of the year in the I Am Second / Interstate Batteries / K&N Chevy Camaro.
 
With a 6.642-second elapsed time on the Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway quarter-mile, he had a full hundredth-of-a-second advantage over No. 2 qualifier Allen Johnson. And his 208.26 miles-an-hour speed, not only was Edwards fastest in the Pro Stock class, he also was the only one in the 208-mile-an-hour range.

But all that success -- including running his weekend-best numbers in the worst conditions -- hardly erased the sting of losing in the first round of the $50,000-to-win K & N Horsepower Challenge that took place during qualifying Saturday.
 
One thing that brought a smile to Edwards' face, though, was the prospect of equaling Bob Glidden's qualifying-streak record.
 
Eliminations for the SummitRacing.com Nationals are scheduled to start at 11 o'clock Sunday morning. Catch all the action on ESPN2 and find out what the winners have to say at CompetitionPlus.com.
