Qualifying Results
The Extravaganza Series points standings practically reversed after the immaculate attrition rate at Darlington last week. Points leader Timothy McDonnell went down immediately, putting an end to his running-at-the-finish streak in 2023, as well as pitfalling to 7th in the Championship race. Ken Pettit put a dagger into his own streak by winning the event in grand style, becoming the final chase driver in 2023 to score a victory, as well as stealing the points lead from the #22. It was also Ken's first Crown Jewel win of his Extravaganza Series career, looking to double his efforts at the esteemed Eddie Money Classic at Las Vegas!
Ryan Heuser ties Rick Jackson for his fourth pole of the season at an irreproachable 203.054 miles-per-hour. He and Alex Crapser occupy the front row with their immaculate record pace, with 39 drivers clinching the 200+ barrier after a "repave of the ages". "My Pontiac was a demonic frisbee." said Mark Heron, who pulled off a miraculous fourth place qualifying effort. "My eyeballs became olives. I could barely see the windshield during the run." Both he and Dalton Lucas qualified inside the top-10, looking for their first top-10 finishes of 2023.
