Matt Hagan secured his fourth No. 1 qualifier in Funny Car this season Saturday at the 31st annual CatSpot NHRA Northwest Nationals at Pacific Raceways.
Other No. 1 qualifiers included Steve Torrence in Top Fuel and Jeg Coughlin, Jr. in Pro Stock.
Hagan powered to his first career No. 1 qualifier at Pacific Raceways after his run of 3.913-seconds at 324.75 mph from Friday stood strong through Saturday’s qualifying.
“I think the new body is just a little bit of a learning curve,” Hagan stated. “The car is obviously running great with No. 1 qualifier but there’s still some things we are learning about this new Hellcat body. I feel confident about it though.”
Defending world champion Robert Hight secured the No. 2 position with his pass of 3.919 at 327.82 during the second qualifying run. He will toe the line against Gary Densham during the first round.
In Top Fuel, category points leader Torrence continued to extend his points lead by securing his second No. 1 qualifying position of the year, as his pass of 3.723 at 331.61 from Friday held up.
“This season has been a lot of fun,” Torrence said. “The car ran well throughout qualifying and I’m not too concerned with its performance tomorrow. The last time we were No. 1 qualifiers it didn’t bode well for us so hopefully we can turn that around.”
Doug Kalitta will start after his 3.730 at 326.00 on Friday. He will meet Bill Litton in the first round.
Pro Stock’s Coughlin, Jr. grabbed his second top qualifier in 2018 as his 6.501 at 212.16 from remained the best in the category.
“I feel pretty good, honestly,” Coughlin stated. “The first run we made today we were third of the session. I think we will use that as a little motivation and an attention grabber for game day tomorrow. We will be on our toes to race and race aggressively.”
