Doug Kalitta took the Top Fuel lead in qualifying on Friday, John Force is the Funny Car provisional polesitter and Todd Tutterow got off to a hot start in a new (to him) car in Pro Mod. The next Pro Mod session is set for noon.
Steve Torrence (Top Fuel), Robert Hight (Funny Car), and Stevie "Fast" Jackson (Pro Mod) took home Wallys at the Menards NHRA Heartland Nationals presented by Minties, the last stop on the NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series tour.
