Woodburn Dragstrip: June 15, 2008
Some new names and some familiar names rocketed their way into the winners circle as
the VP Racing Fuels Series season passes mid-point and the point battle intensifies.
Two thousandths of a second is not very much, but if it is on the wrong side of the green
light, that .002 could be as big as one minute. It would not matter. That was the story of
the final between Dave Sattem and Mike Miller in Super Pro.
Kory Alby found his way again in the final of Pro bracket and again emerged victorious,
this time over Carl Meinig. Kory maintains a 30 point lead over the ’07 champion, Steve
Kelly, who earned a semi-final finish today.
In Sportsman bracket, Jerry Durrant Jr. vaulted to within 30 points of the leader, Derrick
Jackson with a win over Robert Schaffer. Schaffer now sits in fifth place in the points,
while Eli Taghon drove to a semi-final finish for the first time this year.
Roger Wolff defeated Daniel London in the Bike/Sled class. Wolff trails former champ,
Eric Johns, by a mere 10 points at this juncture. This is sure to be a highly contested
battle throughout the remainder of the season. Of note is the 8.38 elapsed time from
Salem, Oregon’s Rick Tedder which is reported to be the quickest ever in the USA on
any naturally aspirated motorcycle.
Dennis George, Jr. held off Tracy Herincks in the finals of Run Tuff, when Tracy broke
out by a mere two thousandths of a second. I guess it just goes to show you that two
thousandths of a second at either end of the track, either at the starting line or the finish
line, can be your best friend or your demise. If you doubt it, just ask Dave Sattem or
Tracy Herinckx.
Listed below for each class is winners name, city, car, RT, ET, MPH, and dial-in.
