Sorry for the delay but the paperwork I got on Friday night was not the correct qualifying order (it was from the rain-out) so I don't have exact times and who all was there. I've asked for the final qualifying order but I haven't received it yet. Here it comes with a lot of ???? marks:

#1 Frankie Taylor - 3.885 at 194 mph
#2 Gaylen Smith - 3.929 at 190 mph
#3 Gene Hector - 4.07 ? at ??? mph
#4 Ken Thomas - 4.130 at 181 mph
#5 Perry Dunn Racing - 4.24 ? at ??? mph
#6 Heath Harvey - 4.268 at 173 mph
#7 David Baldwin - 4.35 ? at ??? mph
#8 Eric Clark - 4.36 ? at ??? mph

#9 Jim Brinkerhoff - ??? at ??? mph (Alternate)
#10 Barry Wade - ??? at ??? mph (Alternate)

There were other drivers that didn't make the show but I'm not sure who they were other than Jackie Deaver, Chuck Nuytten, Chuck Poindexter, & Michelle Wilson

First Round:

Ken Thomas (W) 3.987 (.153 RT)
Jim Brinkerhoff (RU) 4.680 (.058 RT)

After not getting down the track any better than 2 weeks ago, Ken pulls a 3.98 out of his bag of tricks for the win. Jim stepped in for Perry Dunn Racing after they kicked the rods out during qualifying.

Gaylen Smith (W) 4.175 at 169 mph (.073 RT)
David Baldwin (RU) 4.348 at ??? mph (.002 RT)

David did a bad job of red lighting but he knew he needed to do something if he was going to reel in the fish but instead, the hell fish snatched the bait and took the win.

Frankie Taylor (W) 3.946 at ??? mph (.131 RT)
Eric Clark (RU) 4.608 at ??? mph (.013 RT)

Eric left first but the mad man came flying around him on his best pass of the night to claim the win.

Gene Hector (W) 4.724 at ??? mph (.154 RT)
Barry Wade (RU) 16.965 at ??? mph (1.001 RT)

I didn't see this pass but Gene should be counting his lucky stars that Barry had problems because he left a bunch of ET and RT on the table.

Semi Finals:

Gaylen Smith (W) 4.224 at ??? mph (.025 RT)
Gene Hector (RU) 4.854 at ??? mph (.028 RT)

Both cars left virtually dead even but both cars encountered traction problems and Gaylen comes away with the win on an off-paced pass.

Frankie Taylor (W) 4.381 at ??? mph (.093 RT)
Ken Thomas (RU) 6.954 at ??? mph (.044 RT)

Ken gets the light but it was all over after that. Frankie was moving around but was able to keep it in his lane and get the victory. This sets up Frankie and Gaylen in the finals.

Finals:

Gaylen Smith (W) 4.020 at ??? mph (.063 RT)
Frankie Taylor (RU) 3.982 at ??? mph (.116 RT)

This was a great race. Both cars were moving around but Gaylen did his job at the starting line was able to claim the win.

Congratulations to Gaylen Smith and Team TBH for their first victory at Kennedale in a long time. You would have thought this was Friday the 13th instead of the 26th with all the problems that most teams had trying to conquer the track and some of their own demons.

Congratulations to Frankie Taylor and Taylor Motorsports for their runner-up finish as well.

Now we all serviced the cars, got a little shut eye and headed east to the concrete palace where we did it all over again......
