| L | 8 | L | Ron CAPPS | Charger | 0.091 | 5.763 | 251.5 |
Both men got away to very sluggish starts but Tasca III was able to get his car on the right path before Ron Capps in order to beat him for the second time this season.

| W | 10 | R | Tony PEDRAGON | Impala | 0.950 | 4.018 | 296.8 |
| L | 7 | L | Brain THIEL | Monte Carlo | 0.840 | 8.098 | 77.3 |
Brian Thiel has qualified in four straight events now but has only made it past the first round in one of them. Severe wheelspin in the early stages of this race was guilty of taking him out in his debut against Tony Pedregon.

Another first-time meeting between drivers and the other Pedegon brother goes on the quarterfinals while his opponent has big problems.

| L | 12 | L | Jeff AREND | Solara | 0.105 | 5.292 | 273.5 |
Mike Smith got away very well but was unable to reach top speed. It was enough to hold off Jeff Arend who, with this first race against Smith, has not won in in his last four races since reaching the final against Matt Hagan back in the SummitRacing.com NHRA Nationals.
| W/L | # | L | Driver | Car | R/T | E.T. | Speed |
| W | 1 | R | Del WORSHAM | Solara | 0.073 | 4.142 | 305.3 |
| L | 16 | L | Bob BODE | Impala | 0.12 | N/A | N/A |
Bob Bode is also in a funk as he loses his sixth first round race in a row, but Del Worsham has won five of his seven this season, with one of the losses against Bode.

| W | 2 | R | Robert HIGHT | Mustang | 0.087 | 5.719 | 275.0 |
| L | 15 | L | Grant DOWNING | Monte Carlo | 0.064 | 8.517 | 91.8 |
In only his second race of the season Grant Downing's wheelspin forced him to the wall where he lost his momentum. This left Robert Hight's poor time enough to send him into the second round for the third time where he is currently undefeated.

| L | 13 | R | Matt HAGAN | Charger | 0.084 | 5.397 | 266.0 |
Matt Hagan's great run of form has come to an end with more wheelspin proving the difference. Tim Wilkerson put in the second fastest time of the round.

The final race of the round saw Ashley Force-Hood take down Daniel Wilkerson after his second successful qualifying of the season. Force-Hood has only made it into the semi-finals on two occasions in her five previous trips to the second round.
