| W | 8 | L | Jack BECKMAN | Charger | 0.100 | 4.055 | 304.3 |
| L | 9 | R | Del WORSHAM | Solara | 0.104 | 4.678 | 288.0 |
The first meeting between these two was a see-saw battle. Beckman had the better start to the tree but he needed to find his better finish in order to defeat Del Worsham.
| W/L | # | L | Driver | Car | R/T | E.T. | Speed |
| W | 7 | R | Ashley FORCE-HOOD | Mustang | 0.099 | 4.394 | 289.5 |
| L | 10 | L | Leif HELANDER | Camaro | 0.112 | 11.116 | 42.0 |
Two qualifications for Helander and two defeats to Ashley Force-Hood, both due to mechanical failure. Things started badly for the loser with a sluggish start, and he was left in no position to take advantage of some late wheelspin from Force-Hood.
| W/L | # | L | Driver | Car | R/T | E.T. | Speed |
| W | 11 | R | Bob TASCA III | Mustang | 0.102 | 4.012 | 313.3 |
| L | 6 | L | Mike NEFF | Mustang | 0.090 | 4.386 | 304.5 |
Despite a superior start, Mike Neff has now lost four races on the bounce since reaching the final at the Thunder Valley nationals, losing to Tasca III for the second time this season. Both drivers were neck and neck until the finish when the victor kept it clean and fast.

| W | 5 | L | Jeff AREND | Solara | 0.083 | 4.962 | 290.5 |
| L | 12 | R | Brian THIEL | Monte Carlo | 0.104 | 5.553 | 258.0 |
Brian Thiel is 3-7 on the year after some minor mechanical issues held him back off the starting line, leaving Jeff Arend to reach his fourth quarterfinal this season; his second in a row.
| W/L | # | L | Driver | Car | R/T | E.T. | Speed |
| W | 1 | R | Bob GILBERTSON | Stratus | 0.033 | 4.000 | 300.8 |
| L | 16 | L | Terry HADDOCK | Stratus | 0.123 | 9.974 | 69.3 |
Terry Haddock's first foray into racing this year ended badly when, after watching Bob Gilbertson disappear right from the start anyway, his car almost gave out completely with a load bang. Gilbertson washes the bad taste of the previous two rounds with an the fastest time of the event.
| W/L | # | L | Driver | Car | R/T | E.T. | Speed |
| W | 2 | R | Tony PEDRAGON | Impala | 0.080 | 4.004 | 304.3 |
| L | 15 | L | Jim HEAD | Solara | 0.108 | 4.810 | 290.0 |
Through eleven events now Tony Pedregon has only lost in the first round three times, taking the scalp of Jim Head for the first time this season. A slight hiccup in Head's Solara was enough to upset his flow early on, allowing the great start of Pedregon to head off into the distance.
| W/L | # | L | Driver | Car | R/T | E.T. | Speed |
| W | 4 | R | Ron CAPPS | Charger | 0.104 | 4.645 | 290.0 |
| L | 13 | L | Justing SCHRIEFER | Camaro | 0.091 | 5.453 | 263.5 |
Another debutant in the world of successful qualifying spun the tyres past the tree to let Ron Capps off the hook after some momentum trouble of his own.
| W/L | # | L | Driver | Car | R/T | E.T. | Speed |
| W | 14 | R | Tim WILKERSON | Mustang | 0.125 | 4.567 | 299.5 |
| L | 3 | L | John FORCE | Mustang | 0.065 | 7.163 | 176.0 |
Tim Wilkerson has an easy time moving his head to head record with John Force a 2-1 advantage when Force nearly went wildly off track struggling to correct his wheelspin.
