Summit E.T. Racing Series - August 18

Ron Klein Jr. Captures Jr. Dragster Challenge Title

August 18 Jr. Dragster Winners

August 18 - We held our annual Jr. Dragster Challenge event today which saw an increased entry total as Jr. Dragster drivers from around the State converged to take their shot at the Challenge title. In the end it was ESTA regular and current points leader Ron Klein Jr. taking the win over fellow ESTA driver Dunham Hall. It was over at the start as Dunham lit the red light as both drivers were dialed in at 7.90. Ron would have been tough to beat as he nailed the tree with an awesome .511 light. Both drivers broke out, but Ronnie was closer to his 7.90 dial with a 7.888 at 83.20 mph pass, while Dunham dove deeper on his dial with a 7.843 at 84.92 mph run. Nine year old Natalia Musolino did herself proud by hanging in there with mostly older kids finishing as the semifinalist.

Steve Doss broke into the Super Pro win column in his newly-acquired dragster when James Smith broke out in his '70 Nova. Peter DeSalvo finally shook the Street Money bridesmaid curse and ran right on his dial-in to score the win over last week's winner Tyler Bedell.

Steve Doss who has been going rounds at every race scored his first Super Pro win by driving his ’98 Cressman dragster to the final round win by stopping James Smith Sr. who was in his familiar “Boss Man” ’70 Nova. James held the staring line advantage .530 to .552, but took too much stripe and broke out with a 9.129 at 145.14 mph run on his 9.14 dial while Steve ran 7.615 at 173.59 mph on his 7.60 dial for the win. Tom Belvick and Mark Leo were the semifinalists.

Super Pro
Tim Roberts with the tuning help of his wife Dawn guided his Chevy powered dragster to the top payout in Super Pro narrowly defeating Jack Vault in his Ford powered dragster. Tim used a stellar .502 reaction time to run a backed off 4.994 at 138.05 mph run on his 4.97 dial in, while Jack had to settle for the runner-up spot with a 4.736 at 145.25 mph run on his 4.73. The margin of victory for Tim was .009. Also of note this was Jack's first week back with his dragster after suffering engine damage about a month ago and he looked sharp as he ran three straight 4.73s leading up to the final round. Steve Doss continues to impress with his move into a dragster and he finished in the semi's.
