The GetWorkComp.com World Finals kicks off Friday with the ADRL's second annual Battle for the Belts competition, two eight-car eliminators that will determine the 2006 ADRL Pro Extreme and Pro Nitrous world champions. The fields for those two events has already been determined, and when the final pair of cars in the Belts competition goes down the track Friday night, the ADRL's 2006 season will have concluded. But a clean slate will greet all the drivers in attendance on Saturday, when two rounds of qualifying will finalize the 16-car fields for the "regular" World Finals eliminators. All points earned in Saturday's competition will count toward the 2007 ADRL points standings.Last year, drivers such as Pro Nitrous winner Keith Baker and Pro Extreme runner-up John Lynam used their second-day performances in Kennedale as a springboard toward the top of this season's points standings.
Overall, seven of the 17 drivers who scored points at the 2005 Kennedale
race went on to qualify for the 2006 Battle for the Belts championship
eliminators.
