X275 at NED results with pics First off thanks to our great sponsors for doing what they do to keep this class alive. Keep in mind without them this class would not grow.
Dez Racing - www.dezracing.net
DMC Racing - www.dmcracing.com
Slowhawk Performance - www.slowhawkperformance.com
I'd also like to thank NED for all their support with X275. The staff there does a great job.
We had 5 cars enter, I am sure the bad weather throughout the week scared off some people but the sun was shining and the skies were clear. You couldn't ask for better weather.
Here are the 5 racers:
Jim Coger #1 Qualifier with a 5.47
Bill Meserve #2 Qualifier with a 5.54
Jack Pereira #3 Qualifier with a 5.65
Nick Arvenites #4 Qualifier with a 5.74
Dave Dias #5 Qualifier with a 7.17
1st rd of elims:
Jim Coger runs a 5.55 on his bye
Jack Pereira runs a 5.56 to beat Nick's 5.82
Bill Meserve runs a 5.53 to take out Dave Dias 7.13
After that round seemed like the 2 Nitrous guys had their A game and were going to give Jim Coger a run for his money.
Round 2 of Elims:
Bill Meserve got the bye and decided to throw alittle more at it running a new best of 5.46 with the new car.
Jim Coger faced off Jack Pereira who debuted his 69 Mustang for the first time at X275 at NED. Jack is still getting a handle of his BBF on spray. He pulled off an impressive 5.50 but it wasn't enough to catch Coger's 5.47
Finals:
After a 5.46 from Bill and a 5.47 from Jim we were all looking forward to an awesome final. Jim was given lane choice. Seemed like the left lane was not favored by the racers all day so Jim choose the right lane. This proved to be correct when Bill when up in smoke like he was still in the water box. Unfortunately for Jim he deep staged by accident and cut the light too close and went red.
Bill Meserve wins for the 2nd race in a row and leads the points standings. Congrats to Bill and his wife Sue coming out with a new car with a new setup untested and taking the win.
