Weston Family Racing 

 

Leah Pruett cuts a great light to prevail over Derik Milanesio. A 4.56 to a quicker 4.55 to take home the very first Wicked West Coast 330 title.

 
 

Jenica Milanesio's Whaley powered dragster ripped off several 4.4 passes,establishing the WWC 330 record at 4.476.

 

"Road Rage Ricky" Weston was on his game, getting edged out in the semi-finals by fellow Flat Out team member Leah Pruett. Earl had the Wicked Weston Family Racing hot rod running well on every pass..

 

Derik Milanesio prevailed over his sisters' dragster  in the semis when she had mechanical failure.

 

Zoë Stevens' off-pace 4.75 in the Hissy Fit was no match against  Jenicas' first round 4.47.

 

"Nitro Niki" Hamlett was a surprise non qualifier in the beautiful McGee Quad-Cam tribute machine prepped by Scott "Mad Scientist" Bently.

 

A valiant effort was put forth by Casey Grisel and the Cheetah Team, powering into the number 6 spot.

The Pruett Sisters are all smiles after the finals.

  Morgan Rash raised a few eyebrows with his performance.  

Jimmy Stevens gives the Python car a little more horsepower as Ron Pruett looks on.

 

Alex Barrett jumped into the Pruett Eliminator, making several strong passes, only to miss the cut.

 
  Jacob Tosti was on hand in the Mad Dog Dragster.  
  Ashlee Mossi brought out the hot Smokin' Ash entry.
