GAINSVILLE, Friday: Tony Bartone wasted no time in climbing to the No. 1 qualifying spot during the first professional qualifying session at the 36th annual NHRA Mac Tools Gatornationals. Bartone drove the Jim Dunn Racing/Got CMKX/Lucas Oil Funny Car to the top spot on just the second Funny Car run of the event with a strong 4.926 at 315.90 mph.
The Got CMKX/Lucas Oil team continues to gain momentum after qualifying well at the last event in Phoenix. The Jim Dunn team will look to build on their opening run during the second session at the Gatornationals Friday afternoon and hold on to the top qualifying position for the entire weekend.
