  |  | VIRGINIA’S LEWIS WINS ‘SCHOOL’S OUT SHOOTOUT’ 
                                  MAIN EVENT
                                  
                                  
                                  Fayetteville’s Callahan 6-9 Age Group Champ as 
                                  Rock Hosts Juniors from Nine States 
 ROCKINGHAM, N.C. – Virginian Lavar Lewis won 
                                  Saturday’s Main Event and Jr. Dragster racers 
                                  from Florida hoisted the trophy in four other 
                                  races but Fayetteville’s Nolan Callahan kept 
                                  the host state from being shut out in the 
                                  School’s Out Shootout at Rockingham Dragway.
 
 Callahan’s better reaction time enabled him to 
                                  drive past Jackson Summers of Franklin, Ky., 
                                  in a double breakout final round for the 6-9 
                                  age group championship on
 Sunday. Callahan was .064 of a second under 
                                  his 12.08 target; Summers was .069 under his 
                                  11.91.
 
 In an event that attracted junior racers from 
                                  nine states, Lewis cruised to victory in 
                                  Saturday’s feature when final round foe 
                                  Matthew Pilon of Clewiston, Fla., also was 
                                  guilty of a breakout foul. Lewis, meanwhile, 
                                  was safe with an 8.025 against a 7.980 target, 
                                  mollifying the sting of a final round loss in 
                                  Friday’s Gamblers Race.
 
 The weekend’s only double winner was Austin 
                                  Logan of Port Charlotte, Fla., who after 
                                  beating Lewis in the Gamblers Race finale, 
                                  picked up an additional $500 for winning the 
                                  Golf Cart Race on Saturday.
 
 Katie Sloat of Parrish, Fla., and Dylan 
                                  MacNicol of North Port, Fla., were the other 
                                  age group winners, Sloat in 14-18 and MacNicol 
                                  in 10-13, and Sylvia Pilor of Parrish, Fla., 
                                  won the Parents Race over Dwayne Stiles of 
                                  Winder, Ga.
 
 Outside of Callahan’s win, the best 
                                  performances by Carolinians were Liberty’s 
                                  Kristen Brady’s runner-up finish in the 14-18 
                                  age group and Alyssa Rabon’s second place in 
                                  10-13. Cam Whisnant of Dallas, who won the 
                                  Carolina Coalition event earlier this year at 
                                  The Rock, reached the semifinals in 14-18 
                                  before being ousted by the eventual winner.
