Sunday was another picture perfect race day with almost 300 cars ready to compete for trophies, checks, and points in race number 4 of the Hoffman Weber BIR Bracket racing Series.



The Res Tech Systems Super Pro winner was Brenden Bungert in his 86 Cutlass. Bungert had a .008 reaction time and ran a dead-on 06.530 on his 6.53 dial in for a very tough to beat 8 pack which was not needed as Myron Streit in his 68 Camaro fouled out turning on the red light by 12 thousands of a second.





Track stop pro ET was won by Nick Engler in his 69 Coronet when he used a .003 reaction time and ran 6.157 on his 6.15 dial-in tossing a 10 pack at Nathan Olson in his 79 Camaro who despite a decent .014 light had to break out running 7.250 on his 7.26 to get to the stripe first.

Comp Trophy was won by Jeremy Poissant in his 70 Camaro. His opponent was Joseph Moriarty Jr in a 68 Cutlass. Both drivers turned on the reds but Poissant’s .-009 was the lesser of the two fouls giving him the win.

In Jr. Street Andy Fischer in a 23 Sonic used his .007 reaction time to defeat Ty Reynolds who was in his 3rd final of the weekend.

The Jr. Dragster Intermediate final saw Evan Songas get the win over Bodie Carlson whose car had to go through an engine swap after breaking on Saturday to make the race on Sunday. The victory gave Songas a double-up weekend.



Jr. Dragster Novice also saw a weekend double up when Hayden Hjelle defeated Jaxon Wilczek who luckily was able to make the final round after suffering a steering failure incident in the prior round.
