Brittany Force snagged the provisional Top Fuel pole with her Advanced Auto Parts dragster, racing to a 3.773 to edge out Mike Salinas’ 3.736 for the top spot.

Five drivers found the 3.7-second zone on their opening passes, with Leah Pritchett’s 3.775 just ahead of defending event champ Steve Torrence’s 3.779.

Points leader Doug Kalitta had one of the few cars not to make it down the all-concrete strip, but he’ll have three more chances to improve.
