Summit Super Doorcar $40K Challenge - May 17-19 @ Piedmont
The Rountree family owned both cars in the Summit $40,000 to win main event of the Summit $40K Super Doorcar Challenge, with TG Paschal behind the wheel of the Rampage Camaro picking up his second Loose Rocker event win over a stout field of 250 entries.
Paschal earned the $40,000, Big Check, and the giant $40K Loose Rocker Eagle trophy over teammate Chris Dean, whose Dean's Performance engines powered both cars. Wes Siegel was not only the semifinalist, but also the California Car Cover Best Appearing Car.
In the $3,000 to win Gamblers race, with no double entries and no buybacks, Brett Nesbitt outlasted the field wheeling Mike Bloomfield's S-10, stopping John Mattera in his second straight Gamblers final. Tommy Plott and Shannon Woodring were the semifinalists.

There's a combination. Pollard is footbraking. I believe Seth Phillips is transbrake off the bottom, and Biddle is hitting the bottom with the delay box. Milstead said he was going to switch to the bottom today.
I raced with John Mattera up in MD for many years a long time ago. Its good to see him still out there and still winning. And such a wonderful family, good stuff for sure. Weren,t any ducks at this race, except DUCKY !!!!!!

Tucker Creech etched his name in the history books with an Abruzzi $10K Finale victory at the Inaugural Summit Racing Equipment Super Doorcar Challenge. Creech ran dead-on in the finals to seal the deal against Kent Sessoms, and dead-on in the semis as well to stop $40K Runner-Up Chris Dean.

After breaking it and fixing it, Jake Hodge won the Mickey Thompson Tires burnout contest with on Victor Dukes' Chevelle, roasting the M/T's to the 330'.
On Sunday, there were six winning .000's in the first round alone, and the Top 50 winning reaction times were .009 or better... those were the WINNING reaction times! There were three .000's just in the first round that didn't turn on the win light: Skirt Vickers, Billy Eyring, and Shawn Brown each picked up a Summit Gift Card to ease their pain. All told, there were 17 perfect lights on Sunday!
