Tim Wilkerson will have the chance to win the Gatornationals for the second time, but he’ll have to climb a tall hurdle in Robert Hight to get it done.

Wilk ran his second straight 3.8-second pass, a 3.896 to beat Jack Beckman and even their head-to-head record at 19 wins apiece. Low qualifier Hight, meanwhile, beat his boss, John Force, for the third time in three races this season with a devastating 3.852, low e.t. of the meet and his third straight 3.8-second pass of eliminations.
