Howie Stevens, a Competition Eliminator racer from Vancouver, BC, lost control of his C/Altered Mustang during the second session of qualifying at the NHRA Northwest Nationals outside of Seattle.

Stevens' Mustang was running in the left lane when he drifted left out of the groove. He then over-corrected, sending his car into a slow roll in front of Brad Plourd, who was in the right lane. Plourd had aborted his run early.

Stevens made contact with the right wall and slid to a stop upside down.

Stevens was checked by on-site medical personnel and released.
