Smith rode his bright red Denso EBR to a 6.753 to lead a strong field of 23 riders. Smith, the current speed record holder, also cracked the 200-mph mark with a 200.95 best. Behind Smith was championship runner-up Eddie Krawiec who rode his Harley-Davidson to a 6.792 and Krawiec’s teammate, Andrew Hines, who ran 6.812. In her first run as a member of the Vance & Hines team, Angelle Sampey clocked a respectable 6.854.
