RAIN WASHES OUT ROCKINGHAM’S DRAGSTOCK XI PRO MOD RACE

unnamed 4Heavy rain washed out final eliminations Sunday in Dragstock XI at Rockingham Dragway, the seventh of eight races in the PDRA Pro Modified Series.  The event will be completed in conjunction with the PDRA season finale, Oct. 10-11, at Virginia Motorsports Park.

“Very disappointing,” Rockingham Dragway owner Steve Earwood said of the outcome.  “We had a helluva a race going but, once again, you find yourself at the mercy of Mother Nature.  Our crew and the PDRA crew went above and beyond trying to get the track dry, but it seemed like every time we were within a couple minutes of  ‘go,’ the clouds opened up again.

“We had a great Saturday night show and I think everyone was looking forward to a great race on Sunday,” he said.  “It’s just one of those things you have to deal with if you’re in this business any time at all.”

Before the rain, Gene Hector of Big Spring, Texas, scored a major upset by beating No. 1 qualifier Jason Scruggs of Saltillo, Mississippi in the featured Pro Extreme category.  That puts point leader and No. 2 qualifier Bubba Stanton of Potts Camp, Mississippi in the driver’s seat when racing resumes in Richmond, Virginia.

First round racing was completed in every category except Pro Stock when rain forced the first of several suspensions of competition before officials finally pulled the plug on the event at 3 p.m.

FRIDAY RESULTS - SCRUGGS FIRST DAY QUALIFYING LEADER AT PDRA’S DRAGSTOCK XI

a-top-1Veteran Jason Scruggs of Saltillo, Miss., drove his 1963 Corvette through the eighth mile timers in 3.570 seconds at 215.13 miles per hour Friday and took the provisional No. 1 position in advance of Sunday’s Dragstock XI PDRA Pro Modified race at Steve Earwood’s Rockingham Dragway.

It was a late night  for Scruggs who, along with everyone else, had to wait for a track clean-up following an engine explosion and fire involving the 1969 Chevy Camaro replica of David Campbell of Oxford, Miss.  

Campbell was uninjured in the incident in which a valve hung open precipitating a nitrous explosion that blew the hood scoop 30 feet in the air.  Unfortunately, that was only the beginning of Campbell’s troubles.  

What started as a small fire erupted into an inferno about 300 feet down the eighth mile course.  It took track personnel almost an hour to complete the cleanup and track repair operation.  

Qualifying resumes Saturday with two final sessions in each of eight primary PDRA classes.

Other first day leaders were Tommy Franklin of Fredericksburg, Va., in Pro Nitrous; Steven Whiteley of Grand Junction, Colo., in Pro Boost; Dean Goforth of Holdenville, Okla., in Extreme Pro Stock; Ashley Owens of Decatur, Ala., in Extreme Pro Stock Motorcycle; Jody Stroud of Chesterfield, S.C., in Top Dragster; Bruce Thrift of Waycross, Ga., in Top Sportsman; and Ziff Hudson of Concord, N.C., in the new Pro 275 class.
