By Jim Samuel

ENGLISHTOWN, N.J. - Notes from round 1 qualifying in Top Alcohol Funny Car at the NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series, 41st annual NHRA SuperNationals listing lane, driver name, elapsed time, top speed, and position in order following run:

---

Right Lane: Eric Lourie Runs 5.664/251.11, Now #1

11:52 a.m. - Lourie took his car down the groove.

---

Left Lane: John Headley Runs 6.666/158.00, Now #3
Right Lane: Neal Parker Runs 5.732/249.90, Now #2

Headley spun the tires coming off the starting line and it sounded as if he never shifted. Parker ran his career best ET and speed but then never opened his chutes. The car went off the track into the sand. We'll be down here for a while.
