RACING HIGHLIGHTS:
With the extremely hot temperatures, the air density altitude was roughly 2100 feet above sea level. This makes it incredibly difficult to achieve low 1/4 mile times and produce engine horsepower. But, even with the harsh conditions, the MAXUS 09 Drag Showdown was a huge success!
Jim Edwards drove all the way from Canada to race in this event. He put down the fastest time of the day of 11.28 @ 123mph with his 95 Maxima VQ35 while spraying nitrous. He also went on to win the Nissan Unlimited class and Quick 8 at the end of the day!
Aaron Kimball of NWP Engineering made his way from North Carolina to be at this event after spending the entire winter completing the 92 Maxima VQ35 engine swap. After qualifying 2nd next to Jim Edwards' All Motor 95 Maxima, he went on to beat him in the finals with a 12.80 to his 12.88. The margin of victory was only 8 thousandths of a second due to Jim's quick reaction time. The cars appeared to be dead locked the entire way down the track. It was definitely the single tightest and most exciting race the entire day with the NWP Engineering car only winning by exactly 1 foot and 3 inches! Aaron's best All Motor time of the day was a 12.76 at 108mph.
