2022 Race Of Champions update
 

With the conclusion of the 2021 season, we've got 10 racers that have won their way into qualifying for this unique event. In a nice twist, the previous years R.O.C. winner will be automatically seeded into the event. So, at the conclusion of the 2021 season, we have:

-Jason Deforest (2021 R.O.C. and Earlville winner)
-Brad Haugaard
-Ron Fiest
-Hannah Line
-Derek Fenner
-Doug Engles
-Todd Burgeson
-Matt Steen
-David Bogner
-Jason Shepard

As a reminder, each MCR or Heartland race winner of 2022, up to the final race before the Rock Falls event, will earn a spot to qualify for the 16 spots in the Race Of Champions.

We're working on 2022 race dates now as will post them as soon as they are finalized. As always, we work with the NHRA schedule for Divisional and National events for scheduling conflicts. That adds a bit of time for finalizing our dates as we work together to keep the schedule of events as open as possible for our sponsor racers.

With these winners of the first four races of 2022, here's what our Race Of Champions entrants look like:

-Jason Deforest (2021 R.O.C. and Earlville winner)
-Brad Haugaard
-Ron Feist
-Hannah Line
-Derek Fenner
-Doug Engles
-Todd Burgeson
-Matt Steen

-Bill Wittstruck (TVD 2022 Saturday winner)
-Jeff Hollmann(TVD 2022 Sunday winner)
-Dustin Nelson (BIR 2022 Saturday winner)
-Jamie Picht (BIR 2022 Sunday winner)

With this weekends race at Earleville, we should round out our 16 car field for the Race Of Champions at Rock Falls. As a reminder, in the event that we don't have 16 cars due to a double up, multiple wins or losing a race due to weather, we'll go to the list of runners up in all the preceeding races and put the names in a hat. Charlie Abdouch (Midwest Factory Finishes) will pull the name(s) needed to fill out the field.

Congrats to all the R.O.C. racers and good racing this weekend at Tri State to everyone! :)
