Saturday, March 17 Scelzi fastest among Top Fuel dragsters Associated Press GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Mark Pawuk ended a drought of 183 events without a top qualifying position when he was the fastest Saturday in the NHRA's Pro Stock division at the Mac Tools Gatornationals. Pawuk, whose last No. 1 came at the 1992 Winternationals in Pomona, Calif., drove to a Gainesville Raceway record run of 6.846 seconds at 200.68 mph to claim the top spot in the first Pro Stock field to feature runs over 200 mph from all 16 qualifiers. Gary Scelzi, John Force, Antron Brown and Randy Daniels were the other top qualifiers for Sunday. Scelzi scored his 29th career No. 1, and first of the season in his Top Fuel dragster, when no one improved on his Friday-best of 4.576 at 322.58. Force posted his quickest run Saturday, logging a 4.812 at 316.08 to take the 101st No. 1 qualifying position of his career. Brown claimed his first career No. 1 qualifying effort by leading the quickest Pro Stock Motorcycle field in NHRA history. Brown clocked a track record 7.208 at 188.94. Defending Gatornationals winner Daniels posted a track record 7.431 at 181.30 in Pro Stock Truck for the fourth time in his career. |
