Quoted from an article in Competition Plus: Lee Bektash had been on a tear in Pro Stock testing and repeated the track in his second qualifier to run a 6.944 second pass, under the National record, at 196.56 mph to take the number one spot. While everyone else flirted with low 7-second passes Bektash kept his Dodge Mopar straight and narrow to lead the field by over a tenth of a second. “It’s overwhelming,” said Bektash. “We’ve spent a lot of time and money on research and development on this engine and we didn’t think it’d be that good. “It’s better being first than last, we’re happy. I’m lost for words.” “We’ve got to do the right thing, we’ll go through all the procedures. This engine is really going to set the pace in Pro Stock for the next year. “Bob Book from BRE Enterprises has taken this team to another level. We’ve been dealing with him the past 18 months now, world class. Conditions for eliminations Sunday should be substantially better than they were for qualifying so we may see the first 6.80 pass ever in Australian Pro Stock.
