Pro Nitrous young gun Marcus Butner denied rookie Amber Denton her first career win when he defeated the two-time Pro 632 world champion in the final round. It was a fitting end to a strong outing for Butner and tuner Jay Cox, as they qualified second and steadily improved through eliminations to meet Denton in the final. Butner moved first in his Musi-powered Butner Construction “Heartbreaker” ’69 Camaro and led the race through the finish line, posting a winning 3.639 at 208.55. Denton encountered issues and slowed to a 3.772 at 189.95 to take runner-up honors in her second Pro Nitrous start.
Butner kicked off eliminations with a 3.706 at 205.79 to move past Cam Clark and his 3.75. He laid down the second-quickest pass of the second round, a 3.689 at 207.78, to stop Brian Shrader’s 3.707. In the semifinals, past Elite Top Sportsman world champion Buddy Perkinson left on Butner, but Butner answered with low E.T. of the event, a 3.637 at 208.62, to drive around Perkinson’s 3.681.
Denton qualified fourth in her Musi-powered “OG Jungle Rat” ’69 Camaro and made it through a first-round match with Jim Widener that saw both drivers lose traction. Denton recovered quicker with a 4.379 at 136.97 to Widener’s 5.081. She bounced back with a 3.675 at 198.70 to set low E.T. of the second round while also getting past Corey Smith, who went red by .005. Denton then matched her qualifying effort, a 3.659 at 206.92, to defeat John Vergotz and his 4.173 in the semifinals.
