THAT’S A FIRST NO. 1 QUALIFIER FOR DOUG DUELL! The driver of the DLD Motorsports entry wheeled the OnFire Dodge Challenger Drag Pak to a spectacular 7.559 at 182.82 mph in qualifying to lock down the top spot. Our congratulations go out to Doug and his fantastic crew: Kevin Helms, Lane Gortney, Max Gorton, and Mat Wright, you’ve all done a great job all season. Doug, you’ve done great in your first year in one of these wild Factory Stock Showdown cars, and it’s awesome to see you close it out with top quallifying honors.

1. Doug Duell (Drag Pak), 7.559, 182.82
2. Lee Hartman (Drag Pak), 7.578, 182.79
