PRO

Rob Nixon of West Chester, Ohio made the long tow worthwhile as he took his '69 Baracuda to a win over Richmond, Missouri racer Tony Haase and his '74 Duster.

SPORTSMAN

Regardless of where or what group he races with, IHRA Top Stock hitter Marlin Bogner is tough to beat. And so it was at KCIR. Bogner, from Kearney, Missouri marched his '79 Aspen right into the winner's circle, taking out Orb McCoy and his '72 Cuda from Westland, Michigan.

NOSTALGIA SUPER STOCK

This was one of the most interesting eliminators at KCIR, as a group known as the Texas Outsiders towed north to duke it out with the Ohio regulars. In the end, it was a home-stater, Jim Hagenhoff (photo) of Holt's Summit, Missouri who staved off all the invaders, Texas and Ohio alike. In the final, Hagenhoff's '65 Belvedere "American Muscle" stopped Bob Kanar's '69 Dart from Gregory, Michigan.
