WEBB, FLOYD, BREWER ARE ONLY CIVIL WAR WINNERS CROWNED     ROCKINGHAM – J.R. Webb of St. Albans, West Va., Kenny Floyd of Charlotte and Howard Brewer of Bennett claimed individual titles Sunday before a car fire abruptly ended the 17th annual Holcomb Motorsports Outlaw Civil Wars drag race at Steve Earwood’s Rockingham Dragway. In the second semifinal race in the Pro Tree Door class, Stanley’s Charles Wright drifted to the left and then abruptly turned right, head on into the right guard wall, just before the the eighth-mile finish line then careened into the leftside guardwall and caught fire. Wright was extricated by fire and rescue and transported via life flight helicopter to the burn center in Chapel Hill where he was treated and released. Wright suffered three blistered toes on his left foot, a contusion on his left leg and possible bruised ribs. Because residue left by fire suppressant chemicals compromised the track surface, racers who had advanced to the final round or the semifinal round in seven other categories agreed to split the purse. Before the accident, Webb won the Outlaw 10.5 title, Floyd claimed the 6.0 Index crown and Bennett won in the 7.0 Index class. Ironically, Bennett would have opposed Wright in the Pro Tree Doorslammer class with an opportunity to become the weekend’s only double-up winner. Sanford’s Derrick Sercy and New Bern’s Jason Tyson had reached the final in the Outlaw 275 class while Bob Kurgan of Braselton, Ga., and Davidson’s Barry Mitchell had done the same in X275. Concord’s Ziff Hudson and Jason Smith of Lexington, S.C., split the winner and runner-up money in the King of the Street class and Matthew Lawrence of Richmond, Va., and Clayton’s John Phillips did the same in Real Street 275. “I know everyone was disappointed that we couldn’t finish the race,” Earwood said, “but we had a situation with the chemicals used to fight the fire and we just didn’t feel like we could put the track in competitive condition in the short timeframe that we had. I want to thank all the racers for working with us on this issue. We love racing but only if we can do it safely.” ROCKINGHAM – Results from the 17th annual Holcomb Motorsports Fall Civil Wars drag race at Steve Earwood’s Rockingham Dragway: OUTLAW 275 Qualifying – 1.
