March 8, 2026

GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • ALEXIS DEJORIA delivered the weekend’s strongest performance among the women, wheeling her Chevy Camaro all the way to the Funny Car final before falling to Chad Green. She methodically worked through eliminations, posting consistent 4.0-second passes and proving she belongs in the conversation with the division’s elite drivers.
  • ERICA ENDERS continues building momentum in Pro Stock, reaching the semifinals with solid runs in the 6.5-6.6 range before Greg Anderson ended her day. Currently sitting fourth in points just three spots behind leader Matt Hartford, she’s positioned perfectly for a championship push as the season develops.
  • LEAH PRUETT and MADDI GORDON both showed flashes of Top Fuel speed, with Pruett posting a stellar 3.713 to beat Jasmine Salinas in round one while Gordon notched a semifinal appearance. Both demonstrated the kind of consistency needed to challenge the top tier, though neither could quite break through to the final elimination rounds.

UPCOMING:

  • Next NHRA event TBD
  • Championship points battle continues
