Jeg Coughlin Jr.

Phoenix winner Jeg Coughlin Jr. snagged three points by going low in the first Pro Stock qualifying session with a 6.665. Teammate Rodger Brogdon ran the same elapsed time, but Coughlin was faster (206.48 mph) to top the sheet. 

The top four qualifiers all hail from Elite Motorsports: Coughlin, Brogdon, Alex Laughlin (6.67) and Erica Enders (6.676). Enders didn't beat K.B. Racing teammate Deric Kramer and Bo Butner by much -- just .001 second. That's how tight the top six in Pro Stock is. 

The field gaps from there, as a handful of racers failed to make it down the track under power. That includes multi-time world champion Greg Anderson. The veteran racer continues to struggle to get down the track, while Chris McGaha also threw an 11-second pass on the board. 

Alan Prusiesnky is on the bottom of the field with a 25-second pass, but with five cars still yet to make it down the track, there's plenty of room to move up the sheet.
