Default Pomona will be the deciding factory from Funny car to Pro bike!

Erica Enders was in the final with Bo Butner with Bo taking home the win! Erica has moved

up to third in points with only 149 points behind 1st place Tanner Gray and 9 points behind

second place teamate, Jeg Coughlin.

Funny car will come down to JR Todd & Robert Hight at 74 points back.

Pro Stock Motorcycle is soo close with Matt Smith leading Eddie Krawiec at 4 points back.

4 major players will NOT be back next year...

Tanner Gray, Bo Butner, John Gaydosh & Drew Skillman...all in Prostock.

2019 will also be the year that POSSIBLY they may run 16 races instead of 24 and lower

the field limit to 8 cars, unless they have more races at 16 car fields in consistent basis.

2019 & 2020 will decide what happens there...stay tuned!

Default Mike Janis wins Pro Mod Championship

https://autoweek.com/sites/default/f...?itok=53HLFnWd

NHRA Pro Modified owner-driver Mike Janis was afraid he was experiencing deja-vu.

The longtime racer from Lancaster, N.Y., had feared he would leave The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway disappointed, like he did in 2015, when he let the championship slip from his grasp and finished second in the standings.

He said he and his Mike Janis Superchargers / AAP team was “not going to let anybody get in our heads” this weekend as E3 Spark Plugs NHRA Pro Mod Drag Racing Series competition loomed at the NHRA Toyota Nationals at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Evidently he forgot to include himself. Janis said he ran a continuous audio loop in his head ever since he arrived at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway: “It’s going to happen again. It’s going to happen again.”

And Sunday morning, he thought it had. Janis encountered an electrical failure in his supercharged ’69 Chevy Camaro and lost his first-round match-up against Marc Caruso. He said he figured his prediction was coming true “when I saw Caruso run me down and my car just laid over.” Then he had to wait until the quarterfinals to see whether veteran Rickie Smith – who needed only 24 points to overtake him – would pull off a third NHRA Pro Mod title.
Janis was shocked and emotional as he saw Rick Hord power past Smith at the last minute on the quarter-mile. That awarded the championship to Janis. It was his first under NHRA sanction but his third overall, after earning two IHRA Pro Modified crowns.

“It still hasn’t set in,” he said, clutching his trophy. “After losing first round, we were all down, thinking the percentage of taking the championship was going to nothing, with Rickie still in the show. Rickie had Rick Hord beat there for a little while. Right at the end, Hord went by him, and I said, ‘No, it can’t be true.’

“Well, it is,” Janis said. “I just can’t express the happiness. It’s an incredible feeling. I just can’t explain it.

“We had a good car all year. We had a good car when we got here – nice, consistent runs,” Janis, whose tuner is son Mike Janis Jr., said
