TOP ALCOHOL

Gaithersburg, MD's Paul Lee was all smiles after upsetting number-one qualifier Jay Payne in the Alcohol Funny Car final. Lee, who won with a holeshot over Payne, had no easy path to his career-first national event win as he beat Mick Snyder, Paul Gill, and Bob Newberry in the preliminaries.

John Force's daughter Ashley (near lane) qualified her A-Fueler fourth in the Top Alcohol Dragster field, then made her way to a career-first final against five-time event winner David Wells. Force got the jump off the start, but quickly lost traction and watched Wells disappear with the win.
