"SANDMAN" WINS PRO STREET
Fresh off a Super Chevy Show in Dallas, TX, where he suffered
about $4,000 damage to his blown '69 Camaro when the driveshaft broke
loose, Tony "Sandman" Williams was especially happy with the $5,000
check he received for beating Brian Gould in the Outlaw Pro Street final.
"This really helps a lot, but I'm going to share it with
my crew because they worked really hard all week to get us here," Williams
said. "I also want to thank Hank Hill for all the help he gave us this
weekend. He's the reason we won."
Well, not completely. Williams' .474 reaction time allowed
his 4.543/166.51 combo to overcome the quicker 4.407 at 160.59-mph pass
by Gould after he posted a .534-second reaction.

Tony Williams qualified his beautiful, black
1969 Camaro third in Outlaw Pro Street with a 4.514-sec pass at
154.53 mph. Milt Decker's bright yellow 1963 Corvette was quickest
with a 4.378/163.04 combination, followed by Ronnie Gardner's 4.473/161.87
in his 1963 'Vette. |
Williams put Randy Oliver's 2000 Monte Carlo back on the
trailer after the first round, then sent Steve Hall packing in round
two. The burst plate on the supercharger of number-one qualifier Milt
Decker's Corvette broke during his semi-final burnout, giving Williams
a bye run to the final. Meanwhile, Gould also beat Oliver in the first
round, as Oliver also was campaigning a 1992 Camaro in the class. Gould
then disposed of Jeff Davis (below) in the quarter-finals before he
too enjoyed a bye to the final.

Jeff Davis, a regular at Darlington's Wednesday
night shows, put his 1982 Oldsmobile into the Outlaw Pro Street
show with a ninth-place 5.118 pass at 130.60 mph. |
TOP QUALIFIERS FACE OFF
Tyson Motorsports teammates Scott Winfield and Jeff Tyson
qualified their supercharged late-'80s Mustangs number-one and number-two,
respectively, then advanced through eliminations to meet in the Outlaw
Pure Street final.
Winfield left first with a .484 light, then went 5.290
at 138.76 compared to the 5.311 at 136.71 posted by Tyson. The win was
worth $5,000 to the Kinston, NC-based driver.
