Turbo Magazine Timeslip Of The DayThe Hot Rod final was a classic import vs. domestic battle. Marty Ladwig and the Bothwell Motorsports Pontiac Sunfire had made great strides at Woodburn (9.24) and had blasted into the 8-second club, the elite of unibody FWD drag racing, early in the card at Sonoma.
Across the lane, Bruce Mortensen and the Venom Racing Civic were also making great strides, bullying their way into the NHRA record book with a wicked 8.72 earlier in the day. The buzz around this race was big and the action on the track was bigger. Bruce got a scant .016 advantage at the flash of the green and parlayed that into a .018-second victory by running .002 seconds quicker-9.116 vs. 9.118. The margin of victory at the traps was less than three feet.
