Aryan Rochon made the trip to Pomona from his home in Florida pay off with his first victory. Using a consistent string of 5.5s, Rochon upset past world champs Jay Payne and Shane Westerfield to earn a bye into the Top Alcohol Funny Car final, where he faced Doug Gordon, the low qualifier. Gordon fell off his earlier 5.4-second pace, and that was all Rochon needed to cruise to his first victory.
