AUTOMOBILE CLUB OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA NHRA FINALS PRO COVERAGE

FUNNY CAR by Steve Waldron
"Everyone was telling me that I had a single, but I knew better. I knew there'd be about 30 guys over there working on that car, so it really didn't surprise me that they showed up on the starting line, and it wouldn't have surprised me at all had that car made a full run." – Tony Pedregon, on the thrash that brought Eric Medlen back to compete in the final (page 18)

PRO STOCK by John Jodauga
"He drove nuts; he has always done that." – Crew chief Bob Glidden complimenting his winning driver, Jeg Coughlin (page 20)
