Chicago Pro Stock Motorcycle results: Q4
The rapid change in conditions that came with the Saturday's lengthy rain delay threw the Pro Stock Motorcycle class a curve ball and as a result, there were a number of aborted runs during the final session. Hector Arana Jr. was one rider who made a full pass and his 6.849 was worth three bonus points. Matt Smith also picked up two points with a 6.867 on his Denso EBR while Hector Arana Sr. also scored a point after a 6.874.
The top spot remained unchanged since no one could challenge Eddie Krawiec's earlier 6.801 run. Krawiec will lead the field for the second time this year and the 45th time in his career. Krawiec will face Michael Ray in Sunday's opening round. It's also likely that No. 2 qualifier Matt Smith will have a bye run after Steve Johnson was unable to repair the damage done to his Suzuki after wounding an engine on Friday.
First round pairings (lane choice first): Eddie Krawiec vs. Michael Ray; Matt Smith vs. Steve Johnson; Andrew Hines vs. Andie Rawlings; Hector Arana Jr. vs. Kelly Clontz; Hector Arana Sr. vs. Jianna Salinas; Angie Smith vs. Marc Ingwersen; Angelle Sampey vs. Scotty Pollacheck; Ryan Oehler vs. Karen Stoffer
