Ron Capps demonstrated remarkable resilience at the NHRA Winternationals in Pomona, California, making a significant comeback after sustaining damage to his Toyota Funny Car just a week prior during the NHRA Arizona Nationals. If he retains his provisional No. 1 qualifier position, it will mark his first of the 2025 season and the 38th of his career. Capps achieved the fastest runs in both sessions at Pomona, clocking 3.830 seconds at 328.94 mph, despite feeling sore from his recent crash. He praised his team’s dedication, stating, “I’ve never, ever had any doubt.”

In other categories, Brittany Force led Top Fuel with a stunning 3.646 seconds at 334.82 mph, which featured a record-setting eighth-mile run of 301.67 mph. Force, eager to win at her home track, highlighted the challenges of going directly into racing without qualifying runs. In Pro Stock, Greg Anderson made history with a run of 6.495 seconds at 210.01 mph, making him the quickest Pro Stock qualifier at the Winternationals. Anderson expressed pride in his team’s performance, while competitors Matt Hartford and Aaron Stanfield followed closely behind. With qualifying continuing, excitement mounts as the 65th annual Lucas Oil NHRA Winternationals unfolds.
