Overview
- Qualifying at Pacific Raceways finished on Saturday and produced Sunday elimination pairings with Josh Hart the No. 1 Top Fuel qualifier after a 3.685-second, 335.40 mph pass that earns him a first-round bye.
- Friday’s provisional leaders included Jasmine Salinas in Top Fuel, Cruz Pedregon in Funny Car and Dallas Glenn in Pro Stock, but later Saturday runs reshuffled the order and locked in the official seeds.
- J.R. Todd sits atop the Funny Car ladder entering eliminations while Dallas Glenn kept a top Pro Stock seed and remains the series points leader and defending Seattle winner.
- Track temperature and changing air conditions played a clear role in shifting times between sessions, giving teams windowed opportunities to improve or lose provisional positions.
- The finalized pairings put top qualifiers against lower seeds for Sunday eliminations and restore Erica Enders to the Pro Stock field after earlier reports showed her provisionally out.
