edwards mikeMike Edwards raced to his fifth consecutive No. 1 position of the season in Pro Stock, powering his I Am Second Chevy Camaro to a national elapsed time record of 6.471 seconds at 213.64 mph. It is Edward’s 46th career No. 1 position and he will open eliminations against Vincent Nobile, V Gaines and Frank Gugliotta.
 
“Today was an awesome day,” Edwards said. “I never would have believed that we could be No. 1 at the first five races. That’s so hard to do. So far, qualifying has been great, but I need to work on race day. Hopefully we can run good tomorrow.”

CPTV - PRO STOCK'S AJ WINS BIG AGAIN

aj kn winnerReigning Pro Stock champion Allen Johnson has another trophy -- another bonus-race trophy -- to take home to Greeneville, Tennessee, and put on his mantel.
 
But first he'll probably stop at the local bank to deposit the $50,000 he won Saturday at Las Vegas during the SummitRacing.com Nationals.
 
Johnson recovered from tire shake and outran Erica Enders-Stevens in the final round of the K&N Horsepower Challenge.
 
For all his impressive performance numbers, Johnson found himself winning with a less-than-stunning 7.188-second quarter-mile pass at 200.62 miles an hour at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

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.
