Schumacher has won Indy four times, including the last three in a row. This is the first time he's qualified #1 here, however. This is Beckman's 8th start in Top Fuel and he survived the final round of qualifying on the bump spot, electing to sit the round out to conserve parts for today.

Beckman was up in smoke immediately. Schumacher avoided the 31 qualifier jinx and went right down the groove, running low ET of the round so far to earn lane choice against Fuller.
