Ron Capps' four rounds in Pomona gave him 972 for his career and that is the 6th most in NHRA history. Capps comes into today's race in first place in points from his win at Pomona. He increased his lead with the most Bonus Points from qualifying. He has won over 60% of his first round matchups and won all three of his prior encounters with Diehl. Diehl is making his thirty-fourth round one appearance and is still looking for a win. Capps is 3 - 0 against Diehl in prior events.

Diehl challenges the lights and loses. He runs a career best ET and speed to no avail.

Capps was a little late, but it didn't matter. The NAPA Charger runs another strong three second pass for the free pass to round two.
