Top Fuel Q3:
Josh Hart's consistency shines as he backs up his impressive 3.74 with a 3.793, matching Tony Schumacher's speed. Hart's team is determined to find their winning formula again. Justin Ashley secures bonus points, while Ida Zetterström, Shawn Langdon, and local favorite Steve Torrence encounter challenges. Rookie Kyle Satenstein makes a solid debut.
But here's where it gets controversial: Despite the heat, some believe teams could have pushed harder for improvements. Is this a fair assessment, or is it an oversimplification of the complex tuning strategies?
Funny Car Q3:
The track temperature proved tricky, but Jimmy Prock's tuning skills prevailed as Austin Prock clocked a 3.99. J.R. Todd and Daniel Wilkerson's crew chiefs demonstrated their expertise earlier, with Jack Beckman sandwiched between. Prock extends his lead over Beckman, but will it last?
Pro Stock Q3:
Greg Anderson's dominance continues, maintaining a slender lead over his teammates Dallas Glenn and Cory Reed. The Cuadra twins, David and Cristian, find themselves in a unique situation, separated by a mere 0.03 mph. But this is the part most people miss: Is Anderson's consistency a result of skill or luck?
