Jason Line claims No. 10 at Vegas
 
LAS VEGAS (April 8, 2006) - Other than seeing his teammate Greg Anderson 
qualify No. 1, qualifying for the NHRA SummitRacing.com Nationals wasn't 
much fun for Jason Line, driver of the KB Racing LLC/Summit Racing 
Equipment Pontiac GTO. 

Line best of four qualifying efforts was a pass of 6.814 seconds at 
202.76 mph, good for the No. 10 position on the final Pro Stock 
qualifying ladder.  It was only the ninth time in 55 races that Line 
hasn't qualifying in the top half of the 16-car field.

After qualifying No. 1 at the last race in Houston and going to the 
semifinal round, our expectations were high coming here to The Strip at 
Las Vegas Motor Speedway," said Line.  "We plan to work as late as 
necessary tonight to find and correct our problem and be ready for 
eliminations tomorrow."

Line will face Dave Howard, who qualified No. 7 with an elapsed time of 
6.797 seconds, in the opening round of tomorrow's eliminations.  In two 
previous meetings between the two, Line has won both.  

Line begins his quest for the SummitRacing.com Nationals Pro Stock title 
tomorrow with eliminations for all classes beginning at 11 a.m.  All 
times are local Las Vegas time (PT) and subject to change at  anytime.
