New Westminster’s Mike Nottingham had a terrific run in Super Stock with his SS/EA Ford – going to the “final four” on Sunday

Mike Shannon was the only Canadian winner at the O’Reilly Northwest Nationals – scoring the event’s Super Gas title for the 2nd time in his career

Scott Lowe (near lane) had a great effort in Super Street 10.90 — finishing in round #4 with his Langley-based ’68 Camaro

Event defending TAD champ Shawn Cowie qualified #5 with a 5.375 secs – but was surprisingly knocked out in the second round this year.
