ENNIS, TX (Oct. 23, 2009) - Qualifying for the LenMar Motorsports ADRL World Finals V was cut short Friday evening at the Texas Motorplex following a violent single-car accident involving young Pro Extreme star Jason Hamstra.
While racing Joshua Hernandez in the semi-finals of the 2009 championship-determining Speedtech Battle for the Belts, Hamstra, 22, lost control of his 1968 Camaro near the eighth-mile finish line and crashed heavily from the right lane into the left guardwall after posting a 3.78-seconds pass at 203.46 mph over the eighth-mile course.
Though Hamstra passed closely in front of Hernandez, who already had his '57 Chevy's parachutes out after going 3.74 at 204.08 to take the win, no contact was made between the cars.
The Hamstra-Hernandez pairing was the last race scheduled before qualifying resumed for the Pro Nitrous and Pro Extreme classes, but faced with a lengthy clean-up after the accident, National Guard ADRL officials cut Friday's program short, announcing one final round of qualifying for all classes on Saturday. The Speedtech Battle for the Belts finals will follow, with all runs also counting as qualifying passes.
Joining Hernandez in the Pro Extreme Belts final will be Todd Tutterow, with Al-Anabi Racing teammates Burton Auxier and Khalid Al-Balooshi facing off for the Pro Nitrous title. In Flowmaster Extreme 10.5, Chuck Ulsch and Spiro Pappas will battle for Belts supremacy, while Scott Gray and Ashley Owens will decide the Pro Extreme Motorcycle title. The inaugural Extreme Pro Stock Speedtech Battle for the Belts will go to either Brian Gahm or Matt Hartford.
Current number-one qualifiers include Quain Stott (Pro Extreme), Jim Halsey (Pro Nitrous), Ulsch (Flowmaster Extreme 10.5), Eric McKinney (Pro Extreme Motorcycle) and Cary Goforth (Extreme Pro Stock).
Qualifying will resume at noon Saturday, followed by all five Belts finals, then elimination rounds for the LenMar Motorsports ADRL World Finals V, with all points earned counting toward the 2010 Speedtech Battle for the Belts points chase.
