Jeff Mello had a DNS (did not start) on his heat. His rig would not start. Shannon Campbell and Pike's Peak Rovers are throwing down as I type. His LS2 is SCREAMING!!!

UPDATE: 2:37PM
Shannon takes a commanding win over the Rover with a time of 2:01 for fastest time of the day. Is it enough to get back in the top 5? I guess we'll have to see how he does in his final race.
