The NMCA’s finest did not disappoint at the 16th Annual SDPC Raceshop NMCA World Street Finals, Sept. 21-24 at Lucas Oil Raceway in Indianapolis, Indiana, as they provided plenty of powerful performances, holeshot wins, and championship-deciding drama.

Paul Roderick rocked an 8.27 in his Mustang to lead qualifying in Holley EFI Factory Super Cars, but going all the way were Cobra Jet drivers Chuck Watson and Gardner Stone, and Watson wheeled to the holeshot win with an 8.30 to Stone’s oh-so-close 8.29.
