PHOENIX, AZ – Trying to keep his consistency throughout the weekend alive, a spark of hope in the first round was extinguished prematurely for FireAde Chevrolet Pro Stock driver Larry Morgan at Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park.

“I could tell right away,” Morgan said. “When it started to tremble in low gear, I knew I was in trouble. We didn’t have enough clutch to move the car. When it does that, you can’t seem to do anything right and the clutch gets hot. It is what it is though, and we’ll look forward to the next race in Gainesville (Fla.).”

Facing off against No. 9 Greg Anderson in the first round of eliminations, Morgan put down a solid 6.599-second pass at 211.20 mph, compared to Anderson’s 6.606 at 210.64 mph. Unfortunately, Anderson’s .033 reaction time beat Morgan’s .042, giving Anderson the holeshot win and ending Morgan’s day early by .002-second.
