Nats Pax Battle, get it done in 3 runs.
The morning brought stiff competition with all classes but especially with the highly contested Nats Pax class! They had 9 drivers, after 1st runs only Ian had a clean run. 2nd runs were no cleaner only Ian was clean after 2 runs! Nats Pax only gets 3 runs to make it count each event, with everyone dirty except Ian going into run 3 everyone was itching to make it happen. When this happens, do you play it safe? do you go for the hero run? It’s a toss up. Skyler and Max both decided to try for hero runs and both ended up dirty! Mike was next in 5th with a clean run of 53.665 (XA 46.197), Zach’s first dirty run was still fast enough for 4th place with 54.295+1 (DST 46.161). Ian was clean all morning and it locked him into a 3rd place finish with a 55.278 (EST 45.051). Ryan and Keegan cleaned up their first two runs and were able to lock down cone free runs. Ryan with a flyer 51.544 (CAMS 43.657) and Keegan with a nearly unfathomable 49.398 (XB 42.432) sitting in first for Nats Pax!! Great driving everyone!
