Motivation and team moral was high, as Mike Strasburg was able to show off his new "Procomp Tear Off" design to all the fans. Being the 3rd round of the NHRA Full Throttle season, like usual Mike and the Procomp Electronics | Motorsport team were ready for a weekend of hard work and excitement.

Now that qualifying was up, Mike and the Procomp Electronics | Motorsport team were able to concentrate on producing similar run times for the following Elimination round against Shawn Langdon. This is the first time Langdon and Strasburg have faced each other in eliminations. However, Langdon was first off the line and able to snatch the win:

Shawn Langdon - 0.051 - 4.020 @ 299.53 mph
