BRAINERD, Minn. -- Leah Pritchett's NHRA-record pass held up Saturday at Brainerd International Speedway in Lucas Oil NHRA Nationals qualifying.
Pritchett took the No. 1 spot in Top Fuel with her Friday night run of 3.640 seconds at 330.63 mph, the quickest pass in NHRA history. She broke her own Top Fuel record of 3.658 set in Arizona in February.
"Brainerd is the epitome of throw-down central, so that's what we did last night," Pritchett said. "Today was about getting ready for Sunday. Obviously, our national record gave us, delivered us, blessed us with a green hat but Q4 today was looking pretty good for us.
