Great News! Jeff O'Neal is out of the hospital and here on the starting line.
At this point, Massey has to go one more round than Litton to ensure a Championship.

He does so in style with Paul Smith tuning him to the 2008 IHRA Top Fuel Championship. He has all of the numbers from start to finish. Haddock gave it all they had but it just wasn't enough...

Strasburg will have lane choice in round two.

Contgrats to Massey and Mitch King's team. As far as a rookie winning the championship, I know it has been done on the NHRA side (Scelzi) but unsure of the IHRA.

Thats awesome for the kid winning his championship.

On an other note, Terry haddock is the 2008 Funny car champion. Congrats to him also. I read he ran both classes at his event.

Who locked up Pro Stock? The DRC results are weird. Did Dobbins pull it off or did Berner win the title?

Cannister and Massey had seasons for the ages.

Brian,

Berner won the title.

"Pete Berner is the 2008 champion, by 0.03 seconds, 8 points"

For Dobbins, that's got to sting a little.
