    Anybody hear from Mike after his crash today?

    (W) Jim Whiteley (J&A Service/Rator TA/D) 0.070 5.345 268.97
    (L) Mike Austin (LAD Automotive B/AD) 0.010 NT-Broke After Staging

    Whiteley is 2 - 1 against Austin in prior events. Austin with a great light and then the car shook hard. The car then made a quick move toward the wall and the car got on top of the wall and over the wall. the car came to a rest up against the right side scoreboard. The report from the top end is he is okay.

    Whiteley launched hard and was straight down the groove for the win.. Whiteley will have lane choice over Miersch in the next round.
