Matt Hagan (Funny Car) was also provisional No. 1 qualifier at the second event of 24 on the 2019 NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series schedule.<\/p>\n

Force powered her Advance Auto Parts dragster to a 4.976-second pass at 185.28 mph during the lone qualifying session of the day.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe battled the rain all day but we at least got one pass in,\u201d B. Force stated. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t what we wanted, it blew the tires off it at maybe about 100 feet out. I pedaled it and it hooked up and went down there so it was good practice. Tomorrow the sun is supposed to be out and hopefully we\u2019ll get in two more.\u201d<\/p>\n
