At MIR, it was the truck that took the win, rather than the Lightning. Jimmy Cantrell qualified his 377-cube 1994 Ranger in the eighth qualified spot out of 23 pickups in the class thanks to his .065 light. Like most of the index-class winners at MIR, Jimmy locked into a groove during eliminations. He ran right on top of his dial-in through all five rounds. In the finals, he left after Ryan Jones' 2002 Lightning, but his 9.05 on 9.02 dial-in was enough to get the job done.
