Brittany Force (Top Fuel), Robert Hight (Funny Car), Greg Anderson (Pro Stock), and Steve Johnson (Pro Stock Motorcycle) led their respective classes after the first day of qualifying at the Texas NHRA FallNationals.
With Stampede of Speed bonuses for the drivers who made the best runs in the night qualifying session, the competition was fierce.
"You know that killer run, .63, we were going for mid-.60, so when I got out on the top end and they told me what we ran, it was really impressive," said Brittany Force. "But with David Grubnic, Mac Savage, you can't put that past them. They're capable of running crazy numbers like that, putting crazy numbers on the board, grabbing points and setting records. It's pretty awesome that we were able to double up and when this check with Robert, we seem to have left together and we've done it in the past. So we're off to a good start this weekend and the great thing is we get two more runs tomorrow."
The action continues with a full slate of activity on Saturday.
