Jeff Arend

This is Arend's 72nd Funny Car start, and his last for the CSK team. He has not announced his plans for the 2008 season at this point and would love to close out this chapter of his career with a win. This is also his second ever #1 qualifier. Tony Pedregon has won this event in both 1997 and 2005. The only bad news for him is that for his career he's 0-4 when starting from the bump. Pedregon has an 86 point lead over Scelzi as the first round begins he can clinch the title if he beats Arend and Scelzi or Hight don't win the event and set the national ET record.

Arend makes the most of the deal and takes out Pedregon. T. Ped can only sit back and watch what happens from here.
