Amalie Motor Oil NHRA Gatornationals Top Alcohol Funny Car winner Annie Whiteley
Annie Whiteley not only won her fourth career Top Alcohol Funny Car title and made the quickest and fastest runs of her career, but she also got to share the Gainesville winner’s circle with her son, Steven, who scored the NHRA J&A Service Pro Mod Drag Racing Series title. Whiteley won the final with a 5.412 at 273.22 mph on a single run after Dan Pomponio broke. A round earlier, she defeated low qualifier John Lombardo Jr. in a great side-by-side race, 5.404 to 5.425.
