ENGLISHTOWN, NJ -- Kenny Bernstein led Top Fuel qualifying Friday at the Matco Tools SuperNationals presented by Racing Champions at Old Bridge Township Raceway Park before persistent rain showers forced NHRA officials to cancel the second round of qualifying. Saturday's qualifying rounds are scheduled for 12:45 and 2:30 p.m.

Gary Densham, Jim Yates and Angelle Savoie also were top qualifiers in their respective pro categories for the $2 million race, the eighth of 23 events in the $50 million NHRA POWERade Drag Racing Series.

Bernstein posted a 4.599-second run at 323.27 mph in his Budweiser King dragster to lead his category. Andrew Cowin clocked a track speed record of 327.90 mph in his Spirit of NY dragster good enough for second place in the 16-car field at 4.638 seconds.
