| L | 9 | L | Justin SCHRIEFER | Camaro | 0.088 | 11.566 | 45.5 |
Bob Gilbertson survived a troubled start as he had to cope with some severe wheelspin, but by the time he had recovered Justin Schriefer had already closed it off.

| L | 7 | R | Robert HIGHT | Mustang | 0.097 | 4.771 | 278.0 |
Robert Hight also experienced wheelspin in the right-hand lane but this was enough to cost him the win. In tying the series between the two at 1-1, Gary Densham wins his second race of the year in five attaempts.

| L | 5 | R | Tony PEDREGON | Impala | 0.114 | 5.510 | 263.5 |
This is the third time that the championship leader has lost in the first race of an event, and the first time in three races that Matt Hagan has got the better of him; the winner earning some revenge for the final result back in the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Southern Nationals event. Tony Pedregon was not close to his top form here.

| W | 1 | R | Bob TASCA III | Mustang | 0.062 | 4.352 | 293.5 |
| L | 16 | L | Jerry TOLIVER | Monte Carlo | 0.083 | 4.476 | 294.5 |
Since reaching the semi-finals in the first event of the year, Jerry Toliver has qualified three times, going on to lose in the first race. His form continued in his first meeting against Bob Tasca III with more wheelspin for the man out on the right side of track.

| L | 2 | R | Jim HEAD | Solara | 0.088 | 10.981 | 56.0 |
A great qualifying session did not translate to a great race for Jim Head as his clutch caused his retirement against two-time finalist Mike Neff.

| L | 3 | R | Daniel WILKERSON | Impala | 0.116 | 12.079 | 31.8 |
The "other" Wilkerson was competing in only his fifth race and it was immediately apparent that something was wrong with Daniel's machine off the start. Del Worsham reaches the quarterfinals for the sixth time in '09.
