Highlights of the event included a titanic final-round race in Alcohol dragster between the drivers of the country’s two quickest supercharged dragsters, Joey Severence and Chris Demke. Severence emerged victorious for his fourth straight victory at the event.

Terry Ruckman, who earned his Alcohol Funny Car license at The Strip in 2008, earned his first career at the same venue, defeating Jirka Kaplan in the final round to secure his first career Wally. Ruckman, the 2009 Division 7 champion,  is the 104th different winner at the 600th race in Top Alcohol Funny Car history.
