Edwards has qualified on the pole of every NHRA Pro Stock event this season yet has fallen short of the winners circle. He hopes Sunday’s final eliminations will be his first of 2013.

While his actions might have appeared to suggest he was just trying to run consistent, Edwards said he came into Saturday’s warmer conditions seeking to beat Friday’s performance.

Edwards credited an extensive test session in Tulsa, Oklahoma prior to this weekend’s event for helping him to perform better this weekend.
