Brandon Bernstein extended his recent dominance of the Top Fuel class Sunday at
Heartland Park Topeka with his third win of the last four national events,
surging into the POWERade points lead in the process.

Mike Ashley joined Bernstein in the winner's
circle of the 19th annual O'Reilly NHRA Summer Nationals presented by Castrol
GTX with his first Funny Car trophy, while Pro Stock kingpin Greg Anderson
collected his fifth Wally of the year's first eight races.

Usually Bernstein and final-round opponent J.R.
Todd are each other's biggest cheerleaders, but on this day they were rivals, if
only for a few seconds, as they streaked down the quarter-mile for the race
title. In the end, Bernstein's rock-steady rail was quick enough to turn on the
win light as the 15-time national event winner crossed in 4.582 seconds at
320.51 mph to Todd's 4.667 at 299.86 mph attempt.

Top qualifier Robert Hight
experienced a nasty fire following his second round victory over Scott Kalitta.

The subsequent fire
resulted in collisions with both retaining walls before coming to a stop in the
sand. Hight said a loss of traction down track led to the fiasco.

 “It started spinning,” Hight said. “That is a
routine deal when it is hot. The things can spin. They have a rev limiter on
them and it never did rev real high so I stayed with it. If you pedal it down
track like that you lose so much fuel it bangs the blower so I stayed with it
and kept driving it and it wasn’t dangerous. It wasn’t even revving up that
high. The rev limiter was holding it and it blew up. It dropped a cylinder and
it lifted that head and then it relit in that cylinder and it blew the head off
of it.”

That’s when things got
ugly in a hurry.

POINTS LEADER CAPPS FAILS TO
QUALIFY: HARTLEY, HIGHT, AND ANDERSON HOLD
ON TO NO. 1 SPOT

POWERade points leader Ron Capps failed to
qualify for the 19th annual O'Reilly NHRA Summer Nationals presented by
Castrol GTX, snapping the longest active qualifying streak in the Funny
Car class at 55 races.

Capps' shocking result overshadowed the low qualifying efforts of Joe
Hartley, Robert Hight, and Greg Anderson, who were all able to maintain
the top rankings they attained Friday.

Entering the race with a 121-point lead in the standings, Capps could
leave Heartland Park Topeka with the No. 1, but he knows his lead will
probably be substantially trimmed.

When Mike Edwards and his Young Life team developed “A Team on a
Mission” and “Sending A Kid To Camp” program for the 2005 season, none
of them knew how far it would reach into the racing community. Now
entering its third year, the program has sent nearly 300 kids to a
Young Life camp, and for 2007 Edwards and his team hopes the program
far exceeds that number.

“We knew the racing community was a giving bunch that would do almost
anything to give those not as fortunate as us a chance at something
better,” Edwards said. “That is why we started this program and now it
is accomplishing just that, giving kids some hope for the future.”
