Bigfoot Bye, Fast qualifier
King Krunch def. Clydesdale
Micro Machines def. Carolina Crusher (Gary stood it right up on its tailgate for about 30 yards and drove it almost into the wall, it did tap it but CC comes back as a FL)
Equalizer def. Grave Digger (Digger had front wheel drive only, still problems with transfer case)
No Problem def. Star Monster (No Problem has front wheel drive only, Star Monster had problems)
Jersey Outlaw def. Thunder Chicken (Great race, Outlaw got him by half a truck)

------------------------------2nd Round---------------------------------

Micro Machines def. Thunder Chicken
Bigfoot def. Auto Value King Krunch (The two nearly collided on the second turn, and Scott nearly got into the wall. Scott had to let out but came back real hard and knocked the hood and almost the door off)
Carolina Crusher def. Equalizer (Greg popped the right front tire off the rim)
Jersey Outlaw def. No Problem! (John nosed it down and bounced out of his lane)

------------------------------Semi Finals-----------------------------

Bigfoot def. Micro Machines (Micro Machines had a bent shock and couldn't run as fast as he'd like to)
Jersey Outlaw def. Carolina Crusher (Mike was really on his game and was able to take Gary by 4 trucks)

-------------------------------Finals----------------------------------

Bigfoot def. Jersey Outlaw (Killbox malfunctioned and shutoff Mike, who had the lead, halfway around the second half of the track)

They did not show the points after this event, but I believe that Bigfoot retook his lead over Equalizer.
