SUNDAY - CAPPS VICTORIOUS AT BIG O TIRES NHRA NATIONALS; VANDERGRIFF JR., JOHNSON, KRAWIEC ALSO WINNERS

pro winner
Ron Capps raced to his fifth Funny Car victory of the season Sunday at the Big O Tires NHRA Nationals and cut Jack Beckman's series lead to four points with one race remaining in the season.

Bob Vandergriff Jr. (Top Fuel),  Allen Johnson (Pro Stock) and Eddie Krawiec (Pro Stock Motorcycle) also were winners in their respective categories at the penultimate race in the NHRA Full Throttle Countdown to the Championship at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
 
Capps powered his NAPA Auto Parts Dodge Charger to a performance of 4.070 seconds at 315.12 mph to hold off Beckman's Schumacher Electric Charger in a dramatic final round. Capps also defeated Tony Pedregon, top qualifier Cruz Pedregon and Johnny Gray in earlier rounds to claim his 38th career victory and move ever closer to earning that elusive first world championship title.  The veteran driver has finished second three times in his career.
 
“Qualifying was tough," Capps said. "Rahn Tobler, our crew chief, was like, ‘OK, we’re alright. We’re alright. We’re sneaking up on it. We’re just trying to get down the track,’ until today. Oh man, he unleashed that 4.09 in one of the biggest rounds of the year because we didn't have lane choice — Cruz Pedregon went 4.06 first round. We were taking a pistol to a gunfight. I don’t think we were very comfortable that we could go up there and run that in that right lane. To throw down that 4.09 like he did was unbelievable, and then we come back with a 4.08 and 4.07. It’s a fun car to go to Pomona with and actually have a shot at a championship.”
 
Vandergriff Jr. earned his second career Top Fuel victory with a run of 3.832 at 324.75 in his C& J Energy Services dragster, defeating seven-time world champion Tony Schumacher in the final round.

“We’ve had a great race car all weekend," Vandergriff said. "It’s been a year since my last win, and we certainly didn’t think it would take that long to win again,” Vandergriff Jr. said. “Everybody said this next one comes easy. Well, I think they’re full of it because they don’t come easy. That’s just a great job by the guys. We had a great car all weekend. It ran good. We made four great runs today. First round was a little tough. It got hot out there, but other than that, our car was pretty flawless.”
 
The Top Fuel championship landscape changed a bit when series points leader Antron Brown lost to Al-Anabi Racing’s Khalid alBalooshi in round one after his Matco Tools dragster encountered engine issues midway down the track. FRAM/Prestone dragster driver Spencer Massey, who is currently third in points, was defeated by Vandergriff in the quarterfinals.  With the runner-up finish Schumacher moved to second overall, 65 points back of leader Brown.
 
In Pro Stock, Johnson continued his domination, winning his sixth event of the season and 15th of his career with a performance of 6.637 at 208.17 in his Team Mopar Dodge Avenger to outrun Vincent Nobile in the final round.  With the win, he increased his Countdown to the Championship points lead to 126 over defending champ Jason Line.

“The Mopar Dodge Avenger has just been so consistent,” Johnson said. “Consistency is what we’ve preached all year, and today, how was that for consistency with four 6.63s in the heat of the day? The crew is doing an awesome job, and to cushion that point lead there to where we feel a little bit more comfortable at Pomona is great.”
 
GK Motorsports driver Erica Enders was defeated in round two by eventual runner-up Nobile and his Mountain View Tire team. With the loss, she is mathematically out of title contention.
 
In Pro Stock Motorcycle, Screamin’ Eagle/Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson rider Krawiec earned his ninth win of the 2012 season after defeating Matt Smith with a performance of 6.959 at 194.10.
 
“I’m just really excited, really happy, and very proud to be part of the Harley-Davidson team,” Krawiec said. “You know these guys support me 100 percent and give me awesome equipment to make sure I get up and down the track. You know, I have to do my job, and I tried that this weekend. I knew I was going to have a tough round and a tough opponent against Matt Smith in the final. I really had to step up my game and I didn’t want to leave a whole lot of leeway.”
 
With the victory, Krawiec increased his series lead to 111 over Andrew Hines, who lost in the second round.

The NHRA Full Throttle Countdown to the Championship season-finale, the Auto Club NHRA Finals at historic Auto Club Raceway at Pomona, will be held Nov. 8-11 in Southern California.


SATURDAY - SCHUMACHER CLAIMS NO. 1 QUALIFYING POSTION; PEDREGON, LINE, KRAWIEC ALSO TOP QUALIFIERS AT LAS VEGAS

Tony Schumacher claimed the No. 1 qualifying position in Top Fuel Saturday at the Big O Tires NHRA Nationals at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

Cruz Pedregon (Funny Car), Jason Line (Pro Stock), and Eddie Krawiec (Pro Stock Motorcycle) also were No. 1 qualifiers in their respective categories at the fifth of six races in the Full Throttle Countdown to the Championship, NHRA’s playoffs.
 
Schumacher powered his U.S. Army dragster to a leading performance of 3.773 seconds at 324.20 mph to earn his fourth No. 1 qualifying position of the season, bringing his career total to 71. In doing so, he keeps his Countdown to the Championship hopes alive in his bid to win his eighth world championship, heading into Sunday’s 11 a.m. eliminations which will be aired on ESPN2HD.
 
“Side-by-side racing is really what it’s become,” Schumacher said. “There was a time when one car was a tenth of a second faster than everybody else, and he just didn’t have to make a mistake and he would win. But now it’s incredibly close. It’s going to be a battle, and I’m glad we all got today in to see where the conditions are going to be. How many cars ran 3.80s? It was one after another after another, and there were even a couple 3.7s. It’s great. The track is prepared good, and it’s getting better every day, and we’re going to have some fantastic racing.”
 
The battle atop the Top Fuel points standings remains hot as leader Antron Brown and his Matco Tools team qualified 13th with a run of 3.869 at 313.88 while Spencer Massey, who currently sits second in points, landed second with a time of 3.776 at 323.43.  Brown will face rookie driver and the most recent winner on the circuit, Khalid alBalooshi, in the first round of Sunday's 11 a.m. eliminations.

Pedregon paced the Funny Car class with a 4.066 at 312.50 in his Snap-on Tools Toyota Camry to earn his fifth No.1 of the season, 50th in his career. Pedregon is currently fifth in the Countdown to the Championship point standings.

“To be honest with you, the conditions came to us,” Pedregon said. “Had we run when we were supposed to, I think the track wouldn’t have held that, but hey, we took advantage of it, as did a couple of cars. I think when I pulled into the water box we were fourth or fifth. It’s a credit to our team. It’s the fifth No. 1 of the year for our Snap-on Toyota, and man is it a great car. It’s one of the best cars I’ve driven in my 20-year Funny Car career. But we’ve got a goose egg in the win column, so we’ve got to enjoy this, but at the end of the day, we’re going to go out there tomorrow and see if we can’t get that win.”
 
Championship points leader Jack Beckman was seventh at the end of qualifying with a 4.091 pass at 309.06, while Ron Capps, who is currently second in points, landed eighth with a pass of 4.098 at 308.78 in his NAPA Auto Parts Dodge Charger.  Mike Neff, the most recent winner who is third in points, qualified second and will face Jeff Arend in round one of eliminations.
 
In Pro Stock, defending world champ Line led Pro Stock with a track record performance of 6.590 at 209.72 in his Summit Racing Chevrolet Camaro to earn his eighth No. 1 qualifying position of the season, 32nd of his career. He will face Shane Gray in the first round of eliminations.

“My mind-set is easy. Just win,” said Line, currently second in the points standings. “Obviously, Greg’s (Anderson) mind-set is a little bit different than mine. He’s trying to help me win, which is a great thing. You can say that it’s unorthodox because it hasn’t been done before. But that’s why we have teammates. Our philosophy has never been to try to race each other and dive. That’s been done in the past and nobody likes that. That’s not real racing.”
 
Points leader Allen Johnson and his Team Mopar/J & J Racing Dodge Avenger team qualified second with a time of 6.600 at 209.07 and will face Deric Kramer in round one. Erica Enders, who is currently third in the points standings,  qualified fourth with a run of 6.626 at 208.71 in her GK Motorsports Chevy Cobalt.
 
In Pro Stock Motorcycle, Screamin’ Eagle/Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson rider Krawiec won the rain-delayed final elimination round from Reading with a run of 6.966 at 194.13 defeating teammate Andrew Hines in the process to earn his eighth win of the 2012 season. With the win, he increases his championship points lead to 51 over Hines. Krawiec also scored the No.1 qualifying position for the fifth time this season, 14th of his career with a time of 6.902 at 195.11.
 
“Man, to win today was huge,” Krawiec said. “I sort of had mixed emotions when we didn’t have the chance to run the final in Reading. I thought I had a great opportunity then. But after unloading my bike here, we still had a fast motorcycle. We made some good laps this weekend and I feel I have a very consistent bike.”
 
Hector Arana Jr. who currently sits third in the points qualified second with a time of 6.912 at 194.41 on his Lucas Oil Buell while father, Hector Arana Sr., landed seventh on the ladder with a 6.989 pass at 192.60.  Hines qualified fourth with a run of 6.963 at 194.07 on his Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson.


FRIDAY - NEFF TOP QUALIFIER AT BIG O TIRES NHRA NATIONALS; SCHUMACHER, JOHNSON, KRAWIEC ALSO QUALIFYING LEADERS

Mike Neff raced to the qualifying lead in Funny Car Friday at the 12th annual Big O Tires NHRA Nationals at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
schumacher 4
Tony Schumacher (Top Fuel), Allen Johnson (Pro Stock), and Eddie Krawiec (Pro Stock Motorcycle) also were qualifying leaders at the NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series event.
 
Neff paced the Funny Car class with a 4.070 at 313.73 mph in his Castrol GTX Ford Mustang to move around Cruz Pedregon, who was second overall with a 4.084 at 308.21 from his Snap-on Toyota Camry. Countdown to the Championship points leader Jack Beckman was fourth at the end of Friday’s qualifying sessions with a 4.093 at 306.88, and Ron Capps, who is currently second in points, landed fifth with a pass of 4.098 at 308.78 in his NAPA Auto Parts Dodge Charger.
 
“You’ve got to be cautiously aggressive; it’s the way I’m having to approach it,” Neff said. “I know what I have to do: I need to have two pretty great races these last two events, and I’m coming off a great race. I’ve just got to race smart. My car’s running great right now, so I think I’ve got a legitimate chance at it. If I can just keep running good and keep the pressure on those guys, anything can happen. We’ve been in this situation before.”
 
Schumacher powered his U.S. Army dragster to a leading performance of 4.046 at 315.56 to hold off Doug Kalitta for the top spot in Top Fuel. Kalitta was second with a 3.800 at 324.75 from his Mac Tools dragster. Countdown to the Championship points leader Antron Brown landed 10th in his pink Matco Tools dragster with a time of 3.869 at 313.88, and Spencer Massey, who sits third in the standings, was third with a 3.807 at 323.43.
 
“We’re going to race in the middle of the day, and going down the track when the sun is out is great,” Schumacher said. “More often than not, you’re No. 1 because of the night run, but it’s actually more comforting knowing that it was the Friday day run that did it. We made a good, clean run. We made it down the track and wore clutch like we’ve been asking the car to do for a long time.”

Johnson, who has earned 10 No. 1 qualifying positions this season, led Pro Stock with a 6.618 at 207.85 in his Team Mopar/J&J Racing Dodge Avenger. Jason Line, who sits second in the points standings, landed third in the qualifying order with a 6.621 at 208.68 from his Summit Racing Camaro, and GK Motorsports driver Erica Enders sits seventh with a pass of 6.644 at 208.01.
 
“Our goal was to get every little point that we could get and get that lead further away from 80 points,” Johnson said. “We’re setting out to be the No. 1 car in every qualifying round and put ourselves to be in a position to win on Sunday, and that’s what I think we’ve done.”
 
In Pro Stock Motorcycle competition, Krawiec, who currently leads the standings, earned the qualifying lead with a time of 6.938 at 193.88 on his Screamin’ Eagle/Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson. If his time stands, this will be his fifth No. 1 of the season and 14th of his career. Teammate Andrew Hines, who’s second in the Countdown points standings, was fifth after two rounds of qualifying with a time of 7.001 at 191.65. Hector Arana Jr. was second with a 6.968 at 191.51 on his Lucas Oil Buell, and his father, Hector Arana Sr., landed 15th with a pass of 7.076 at 190.83.
 
“Our goal coming into this race was to get some of the extra qualifying bonus points to increase the 17-point gap between Andrew Hines and myself,” Krawiec said. “So by being No. 1 in both sessions, we gained three points from each round and now have a 23-point lead.”
 
Qualifying continues on Saturday with two sessions scheduled to take place at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. Eliminations will take place on Sunday at 11 a.m.
