MORRISON, Colo. - DENVER - Notes from round 1 qualifying in Pro Stock at the NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series, 30th annual Mopar Mile-High NHRA Nationals listing lane, driver name, elapsed time, top speed, and position in order following run:
 
      Left Lane: Danny Gruninger  Runs 7.239/191.27, Now #2
     Right Lane: Mark Buehring    Runs 7.232/191.24, Now #1
Weather conditions: air temperature 87 degrees, relative humidity 35 percent, barometer 24.29 inches, adjusted altitude 9,566 feet, track temperature 97 degrees.

The local paper did a story on Gruninger and said he hit a hole in one a couple weeks ago. Also this is a new car for him switching to a Stratus...from what I hear an old Bob Panella car. Gruninger was real loose right off the starting line. From what I have seen on the entry list is there are 16 cars on the grounds this weekend, so they will be racing for position today and tomorrow.

      Left Lane: V. Gaines        Runs 7.116/193.65, Now #1
     Right Lane: Rodger Brogdon   Runs 7.118/193.65, Now #2
The track record here on the mountain is Greg Anderson 7.010 seconds at 196.39 mph from last year.

V. Gaines' incremental times: 60ft-1.026 sec., 330ft-2.950, 660ft-4.559/153.26 mph, 1,000ft-5.948.

     Right Lane: Johnny Gray      Runs 7.208/178.42, Now #4
Gray was trailing some smoke, but the track is clean. Morgan goes to the number one spot for now.

Larry Morgan's incremental times: 60ft-1.014 sec., 330ft-2.934, 660ft-4.549/152.93 mph, 1,000ft-5.940.

     Right Lane: Warren Johnson   Runs 7.129/194.88, Now #4
Clouds have moved over the mountain now keeping that bright sunshine from beating down on the track. WJ with the fastest pass of the session and that was also faster than anyone ran during last year's first qualifying session.

      Left Lane: Kurt Johnson     Runs 7.204/193.63, Now #7
     Right Lane: Ron Krisher      Runs 7.086/194.74, Now #1
Krisher with a real nice pass to go to the number one spot for now, and just for a reference point the No.1 qualifier after round one last year was Allen Johnson at 7.081 seconds.
      Left Lane: Greg Stanfield   Runs 7.174/192.69, Now #7
     Right Lane: Allen Johnson    Runs 7.038/195.70, Now #1

Stanfield with a good pass...Greg Stanfield's incremental times: 60ft-1.043 sec., 330ft-2.984, 660ft-4.605/152.50 mph, 1,000ft-6.000.
      Left Lane: Greg Anderson    Runs 7.086/194.83, Now #2
     Right Lane: Jason Line       Runs 7.089/194.97, Now #4
The Summit team cars are glued together all the way down the track...Greg Anderson's incremental times: 60ft-1.030 sec., 330ft-2.943, 660ft-4.545/156.30 mph, 1,000ft-5.924.
