          11:33 a.m. Weather conditions: air temperature 65 degrees, relative humidity 26 percent, barometer 29.04 inches, adjusted altitude 1,566 feet, track temperature 74 degrees.
          We have our first final of the day.

          Both cars had easy ones in the last round and this is a big disappointment for Gaynor, as he runs right on his dial, but was -0.079 red. Calvert takes the 2008 Mustang to the winner circle!
