    Norwalk, OH - For the third time this season, Steve Harker and the OMS Graphics Top Alcohol Funny Car Team made it to another national event final round appearance and this time walked away with a runner-up finish at this past weekends NHRA Summit Racing Equipment Nationals held in Norwalk, OH.

    Harker looked set to face off against Marty Nothstein in round two however Harker went into serve tire shake around the 330ft mark and clicked it off early but lady luck was with the OMS Graphics Team as Nothstein had left a red light at the starting line handing Harker the win.

    Moving into the semi-finals, Harker paired up against rookie driver Nick Bastiao. Bastiao was first off the line but Harker had caught up by 60ft and never looked back taking the win with low elapse time for the event a 5.60et at 256mph pass.
