Seasoned Nitro Harley veteran Furr drew an unusual red light in the final against Vancil. "Going into the final with a 6.67 against Doug's 6.66, we were ready," Furr explained. "We thought we'd made changes that would run a 6.60 or possibly a high 6.50. For the heat, the track was in great shape. I really concentrated on a good light, but not that good. I was ready and the starter just wasn't fast enough for me. At the top end, Doug didn't know he'd won and said, 'You sure pulled a holeshot on me.' I told him I did; just a little too much. Even though we thought we'd improve that round, we couldn't have beaten Doug's 6.61." Furr finished his day in Kansas with a 6.72 at 208 miles per hour. "Though I knew I'd red lighted, I ran it on through to get the computer data. We had a 1.10 sixty-foot time, which was our best of the weekend. We slowed down on the rest of the numbers, but we're always looking for information to tune our motorcycle better and better."
