Cj Jelin triples at SoCal Nitro Shootout

The Pro-Line Raceway of Banning, California played host to the SoCal Nitro Shootout that attracted a total of 189 entires for the three-day race. The track had a sand section and an option lane with a metal jump on the inside or go to the outside without a jump. Practice was Friday and the track was really new. This made all the cars loose until later in the day. The more cars that ran on the track the better the grip was getting. Saturday saw three ten minute heads up races and the time was what really counted because at the end race control would add all three of the timed runs to put drivers into a main. There were also ping pong balls in a bucket that had numbers on it. Before every qualifying race drivers would pick a ball and that is were they would start. If a driver picked the number 1 ball he would start first on the track but go up to the driver stand last, or if a driver had the last number he would start last and go up on the driver stand first.
