Qualifying: No. 3
6.550 seconds, 208.55 mph
Race Results: Beat Eric Latino, Aaron Stanfield; Lost to Greg Anderson

Notable:
• Seventh semifinal finish of the season
• Clinched a spot in the Countdown to the Championship after the NHRA Northwest Nationals
• Will compete in the last Mission Foods #2Fast2Tasty Challenge of the 2026 season at the U.S. Nationals

Quotes: "Weekend wasn't quite as successful as we would have wanted all around. There's been a lot of work in the Elite Motorsports camp. Lot of changes and testing. I'm glad I could get us into the semis, it means we'll be in the final #2Fast2Tasty of the year at Indy with points and a half. Just wasn't our day today but it wasn't a bad weekend. Qualified decent and found some win lights, just wish we could have had two more. We'll head home, keep on working at it. I know the shop in Wynnewood will be busy getting ready for Indy and the Countdown."
