Along with the typical set of NHRA classes including Jr. Dragster, Super Comp, Super Gas, Super Street, Top Comp, Stock\/Super Stock Combo and Jr. Comp. There was a complete Bracket Program including Pro, Super Pro, Sportsman, High School and Motorcycle. In addition to all of that it was an event that featured the Northwest Heads Up Racing Association and its classes which included: Hot Street, Outlaw Street, 8.60\/9.60 Combo, Modified Street and Real Street.<\/p>\n<p>All of this included in a double header format with two races in two days!<\/p>\n<p>Mother Nature threatened all day but only delayed the racing activities. Once eliminations began; a power failure caused an electronics \u201cglitch\u201d which made the scoreboards and win lights malfunction! Quick decision making by the NHRA and Bremerton Raceway officials only delayed racing and did not cancel it altogether. Even with this bit of adversity, the racing was close and entertaining.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SATURDAY WINNERS<\/strong><\/p>\n<table width=\"33%\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"4\" cellpadding=\"4\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"66%\"><strong>Class<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"34%\"><strong>Winner<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Super Comp<\/td>\n<td>Michael Peck<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Super Gas<\/td>\n<td>Curt Geise<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Super Street<\/td>\n<td>Bob Sims<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Stock Super Stock Combo<\/td>\n<td>Sean Feguson<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Top Comp<\/td>\n<td>Paul Nowak<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Junior Comp<\/td>\n<td>Tyler McMurry<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Super Pro<\/td>\n<td>Mark Campbell<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Pro<\/td>\n<td>Robert Steffen<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sportsman<\/td>\n<td>Andy Schweigert<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>High School<\/td>\n<td>Jared Biscay<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Motorcycle<\/td>\n<td>Stacy Hesch<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Jr. Thunder<\/td>\n<td>Emily Lewis<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Jr. Lightning<\/td>\n<td>Shannon O&#8217;Leary<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>NORTHWEST HEADS UP RACING ASSOCIATION WINNERS<\/strong><\/p>\n<table width=\"33%\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"4\" cellpadding=\"4\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"66%\"><strong>Class<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"34%\"><strong>Winner<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Hot Street<\/td>\n<td>Pat Hermanson<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Real Street<\/td>\n<td>Chris Johnston<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>8.60\/9.60 Combo<\/td>\n<td>Don Paine<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Modified Street<\/td>\n<td>Al Mangold<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Outlaw Street<\/td>\n<td>Jeff Dugey<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Heavy Street<\/td>\n<td>Walter Grosse<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Sunday was much less eventful, as parts were replaced which allowed the scoreboards and win lights to once again function after Saturday\u2019s power failure and racing went on for Fathers Day without any major difficulties.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SUNDAY WINNERS<\/strong><\/p>\n<table width=\"33%\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"4\" cellpadding=\"4\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"66%\"><strong>Class<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"34%\"><strong>Winner<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Super Comp<\/td>\n<td>Tom Gresham<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Super Gas<\/td>\n<td>Don Paine<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Super Street<\/td>\n<td>Justin Sibley<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Stock Super Stock Combo<\/td>\n<td>Don Elgin<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Top Comp<\/td>\n<td>Terry Wilcox<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Junior Comp<\/td>\n<td>Amber Withers<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Super Pro<\/td>\n<td>Lonnie Sharkey<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Pro<\/td>\n<td>Jerry Gossette<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sportsman<\/td>\n<td>Joey Fielder<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>High School<\/td>\n<td>Steven Gossette<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Motorcycle<\/td>\n<td>Jake Havens<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Jr. Thunder<\/td>\n<td>Katie Kapler<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Jr. Lightning<\/td>\n<td>Shawn Calaham<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>NORTHWEST HEADS UP RACING ASSOCIATION SUNDAY RESULTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<table width=\"33%\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"4\" cellpadding=\"4\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"66%\"><strong>Class<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"34%\"><strong>Winner<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Hot Street<\/td>\n<td>Pat Hermanson<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Real Street<\/td>\n<td>Rob Boardway<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>8.60\/9.60 Combo<\/td>\n<td>Don Paine<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Modified Street<\/td>\n<td>Al Mangold<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Outlaw Street<\/td>\n<td>Jeff Dugey<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Heavy Street<\/td>\n<td>Walter Grosse<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Even See It Imagery was not without adversity as an \u201cequipment malfunction\u201d caused the winners pictures on Sunday for: High School, Pro and Motorcycle to be unusable.
