Kenny Bernstein's Monster Energy Dodge Charger rolled off the trailer
around nine o'clock Saturday morning, but it didn't roll down the
track. In fact, according to an NHRA technical official, it didn't pass
the tech inspection because the rods were too narrow underneath. So the
crew, under the direction of veterans Ray Alley and Johnny West, worked
the rest of the day to make adjustments.
Bernstein, who has four Funny Car series titles among his six
championships, said he knew "we had a lot of work to do." Still, he
said he had hoped to "try to go make something happen today."
