Brittany Force, Bob Tasca III, Matt Hartford, and Gaige Herrera are the top qualifiers in Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Stock, and Pro Stock.
Brittany Force made the quickest run in zMAX Dragway history on Saturday, as the defending Top Fuel world champion rocketed to the No. 1 spot at the Circle K NHRA Four-Wide Nationals at zMAX Dragway.
Justin Ashley qualified second with a 3.662 at 332.84 and Leah Pruett jumped to third with a 3.678 at 334.65 during the final qualifying session. In all, six drivers dipped into the 3.60s during qualifying. "That was the run we've been looking for since we put this together. We're five races in with a completely new team and complete new package, and we're racing against guys with thousands of runs and a plethora of data. We don't have that yet as a team, and yet we've still competed at a very high level. That gives a lot of confidence. To have this under our belt, I'm way ahead of where I was the last three years.
After car struggles before the second session on Friday, Hartford made a big move on Saturday, driving to the top spot."But we regrouped. Coming out here, we were the first car out, which means we had to pull back some, but we made a good run. We came in this morning with the idea that we could go into the top five, and that if we made the right run, we could go No. 1. That's what we did. It's a rocket ship right now.
