Anyone know any results from this race?

Below is a link to the results from the track website. Based on the D2 Facebook it looks like they ran Stock/Super Stock as a combo.

Thank you, Mr. Sealey

Was a bit surprised they ran the first one at Music City, deep in the heart of NHRA legal cars as opposed to the Carolinas which would have drawn some crate motor cars. Think Rich was attempting to meet a need with this series and hopefully will draw more cars in the subsequent races.

In any event congrats to Marcus Widuch, apparently the apple didn’t fall far from the tree.

Unfortunately sounds like the support isn't there yet. I'm sure it will ramp up into something big.

There was talk that NHRA will try to make a 2 year commitment to see how it develops. The series was put together after the regular season started, so there wasn't any time to get contingency sponsors. The 1/8 mile divisional race at Galot was used as an example. First year was a little over 100 cars. Second year was over 200 and 3rd year was over 300.

The heat may have kept some cars away and somewhat of a shorter shutdown than many tracks may have influenced the faster car attendance, particularly TS and TD.
