A week after rain halted the NHRA New England Nationals before the Funny Car and Top Fuel finals could be completed, Jack Beckman and Leah Pruett finally got their chance to finish the job.
The delayed championship rounds were completed Friday at Bristol Dragway, where Beckman drove the PEAK Chevrolet Funny Car to his first victory of the 2026 season. Beckman defeated John Force Racing teammate Jordan Vandergriff to earn the 38th win of his NHRA career.
In Top Fuel, Leah Pruett scored her first victory since returning to competition in 2026. After stepping away from the sport following the 2023 season to start a family with husband Tony Stewart, Pruett returned determined to prove she could still win at the highest level.
She backed it up by defeating Shawn Langdon with a 3.794-second run at 332.43 mph, delivering an emotional victory for her team and adding another milestone to her comeback season.
Watch highlights and reaction from the unique conclusion of the NHRA New England Nationals as unfinished business was finally settled at Thunder Valley.
