Leider, leider wieder Pech, aber immerhin ehrenvoll, schaue hier:

(W) Brandon Bernstein (Budweiser/Lucas Oil Drag 0.081 3.903 313.88
(L) Urs Erbacher (Midland Oil Switzerland Drags 0.077 4.104 291.38

Erbacher is 1 - 0 against Bernstein in prior events. This was a good looking drag race. Erbacher was dropping cylinders on the top end. Bernstein was drifting toward the centerline on the top end and he holds on to take the win light. This is his best pass of the weekend...Brandon Bernstein's incremental times: 60ft-0.878 sec., 330ft-2.205, 660ft-3.130/273.83 mph. Bernstein with the fastest pass of the weekend. Bernstein will give up lane choice to Langdon in round two.

Bernstein hatte Top -Lauf des Weekends gegen Urs!
