JOLIET, IL – It happened in a matter of seconds. So fast, it didn’t seem possible. Monday night Chicago, site of this weekend’s 16th annual O’Reilly Route 66 Nationals at Route 66 Raceway in suburban Joliet, witnessed a miraculous change of fortune in just over 17 seconds by its Blackhawks, leading to a Stanley Cup final-clinching victory over the Boston Bruins.

If either driver can make four passes down the track Sunday, each less than four seconds, less than 17 seconds may be just enough time to change their fortune in the 2013 NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series championship outlook.
