“The magic is really just the consistency that these cars have shown over the last couple seasons, being able to make the semifinals of the races, being able to get into the show of the Mission #2Fast2Tasty and then making good quality runs during the Challenge,” Langdon said. “Both cars have been really good the last few seasons, so that’s just the end result of that.
“I absolutely love being the No. 1 qualifier when there are 15 cars. I feel our cars have made a pretty good statement over the last year or two. Our Kalitta cars have made some really incredible runs throughout the season and so I think anybody that pulls up to us on the Sundays, they’ve got to bring a pretty fast race car.”
“It’s been a great weekend for us so far,” Prock said. “We pretty much gobbled up every point that was available except one yesterday in Q2. I’m really proud of what we have accomplished this weekend. We came in here with a plan that we were going to press harder and try to become the dominant race team that we know we’re capable of being.
“I can’t say enough about this Ford Racing team. It’s an honor to work with them. We’ve really made incredible progress each weekend in these 10 races. Our progression has been very linear. It’s just kind of been a steady pace. The entire show has been better this weekend and that’s great for these packed Norwalk grandstands.”
He also qualified No. 2 as he looks for a clean sweep of the weekend in Norwalk.
“We made a fantastic run there in the final,” Glenn said. “I’m really excited about tomorrow. I’ve been wanting to get one of these ice cream scoop trophies for a long time. I’m really excited about that, and that nice big bonus check should be pretty nice, too.
“I don’t feel like I do well in these races, but I just came in trying to do my own thing, and I don’t know if being in a new car kind of kept me from overthinking anything, just because there was so much new stuff, or what it was, but I just tried to stay as relaxed as I could.”
“He double-bulbed me up there, and I didn’t know what he was going to do,” Gadson said. “That just shows the competitiveness between him and me. Every time we race each other, our little tournament saying is, ‘Are you willing to red light?’ because that’s pretty much where we’re at right now. So, thankfully, he did that time, and it got me the gift for today.”
Herrera finished in the No. 1 spot with a 6.768 at 199.64, earning his second straight No. 1 qualifier. Following Gadson is Joey Gladstone, who went 6.795 at 198.70.
Eliminations for the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals begin at 11 a.m. ET on Sunday at Summit Motorsports Park.
