In the Nitro Buggy class Pro-Line’s Cody King TQ’d round one and Drake TQ’d round two. King would be the overall top qualifier followed by Adam Drake and Ryan Cavalieri. King and Drake had a rough start and found themselves buried deep in the pack. A one point Drake was over twenty seconds behind leader Cavalieri.
