Rain Washes Out Final Qualifying Session at Amalie Oil North American Nationals
Bruce Litton (Top Fuel), Matt Hagan (Nitro Funny Car), Mike
Castellana (Pro Modified), Paul Noakes (Alcohol Funny Car) and Pete
Berner (Pro Stock) claim #1 qualifier positions with an assist from
Hurricane Hanna
The
remnants of Hurricane Hanna moved into New England Saturday afternoon,
setting the fields for the Amaile Oil North American Nationals.
IHRA moved the first Saturday qualifying session up to 1pm in an effort
to avoid a complete washout of all Saturday professional qualifying,
one day after adding both nitro classes to the Friday evening
qualifying dance card. All pro drivers got at least two qualifying hits.
