Despite a less than favorable forecast, the NHRA.tv and Summit Jr Dragster Challenge events were held without delay at Heartland Motorsports Park under cloudy skies. Through what seemed like endless rounds of competition, Roger Clark climbed to the top with a victory over Pro ET winner Nick Siebert to claim the Summit Racing Equipment King of the Track. Additional winners of the day were 2019’s Summit National Champion Ryan Montford (Sportsman), and local heavy hitter Cade Whitmore (Jr Dragster).
