NHRA - National Hot Rod Association

Four years after he made his last competitive run in a Pro Stock car and more than two decades after he left the Comp class, Tom Martino returned to take care of some unfinished business. Martino has five Pro Stock wins as a driver, but he had never won an NHRA national event in Comp. That changed when he wheeled Ken Voight’s Super Modified Cobalt to victory over Scott Benham in the final. Martino had his only bad light of the event in the final with a .104, but opponent Benham was also late with a .134. A (-.526) 8.68 was enough for Martino to claim his first Wally since defeating Erica Enders in the Pro Stock final at the 2006 Gatornationals.
