Right Tony Schumacher WIN 8 2 .065 .878 2.227 3.169 271.02 3.946 313.58 1.3336 --

Weather conditions: air temperature 89 degrees, relative humidity 45 percent, barometer 28.51 inches, adjusted altitude 4,448 feet, track temperature 136 degrees. Schumacher is 2 - 0 against Salinas in prior events and this is the first time they have faced each other in a final round. Schumacher with the starting line advantage and never trailed for the win. He straight down the groove with a nice pass. Schumacher wins his first race this season and the 84th of his career. This is the sixth time he has won here in Bristol and that is the most of any Top Fuel driver. Salinas starts to smoke the tires early and pedals it, but can't get it to hook up and clicks it off.
