After a three-day test session early last week, Dave Connolly felt he would be a contender for ACDelco Gatornationals Pro Stock honors Sunday at Gainesville Raceway.
He did drive the TORCO/Slammers Ultimate Milk Chevy Cobalt to his quickest (6.594 seconds) and fastest (209.95 mph) quarter-mile runs en route to a first-round victory over Rodger Brogdon, but he didn’t pick up the pace in the quarterfinals against eventual race runner-up Larry Morgan.
