Angelle Sampey and Karen Stoffer in Pro Stock Motorcycle -- went a combined 11-3 in final eliminations at the 37th annual ACDelco NHRA Gatornationals Sunday with three final-round appearances and one victory.
Troxel and Enders were runners-up in their respective classes, and three-time POWERade Series world champion Sampey was victorious on her U.S. Army Suzuki to take the early points lead in Pro Stock Motorcycle. It was the 38th win for Sampey, placing her in a tie for ninth with Top Fuel driver Larry Dixon on the all-time NHRA POWERade Series victory list and first among women.

Angelle Sampey
Both of Sampey's Saturday runs put 6.91s on the scoreboards. The first one -- a 6.919 -- gave her the national record. She then lowered the mark to a 6.911, which ties the quickest pass ever. The U.S. Army Suzuki rider has now earned 40 low qualifying awards.
"This is a beautiful way to start the season," Sampey said. "To be No. 1 in the quickest field ever with a potential national record already in the books and to have my teammate [Antron Brown] right behind me in third is awesome for us. There aren't as many Suzukis as there used to be but we're still here.
"I hope we get the record but we might need to go quicker to hold onto it. There are probably four of us that can run 6.8s tomorrow if the weather is like it was today so we'll see. The cool thing is these are our old bikes. We have new ones in the trailer but my crew chief wants us to test a little more before we bust them out. We have four bikes on this team that can run a national record.
"We have everything we need to be champions this year. We just need to hold it together for the entire season and stay away from those red-lights. I want to get back to that point where you feel like you can win every race and where your competitors feel like they can't beat you."
When spanned to final qualifier Karen Stoffer's 7.033 at 191.87 mph, Sampey's 6.911 tops the quickest field of Pro Stock Motorcycles ever assembled.
Craig Treble, Sampey's friendliest rival, is second on his unsponsored Suzuki with a career-best 6.930 at 192.85 mph. He's the quickest of five new riders in the six-second club.
Sampey's U.S. Army teammate, Antron Brown, is third with a 6.930 at 191.24 mph. Friday leader Chip Ellis has the quickest Buell with another 6.930 at 190.75 mph, which placed him fourth.
