Tony Schumacher has been fortunate to indulge in many highlights throughout his Top Fuel career but he still likes to show off in front of his friends in his hometown of Chicago.

At the O'Reilly Auto Parts Route 66 NHRA Nationals presented by Super Start Batteries, Schumacher went 3.772, 325.45 to earn top qualifying position based on speed ahead of Doug Kalitta's 3.772, 322.34. Al Anabi driver Shawn Langdon rounded out the top three with a 3.789 on a day where several big names misfired in the single qualifying session.

With his supporters watching on, Schumacher said there were plenty of distractions as he staged the US Army dragster in the last pairing of the night, from an already stout bump spot to a fogging visor.

"It had to get to the finish line, it showed 3.91 on the scoreboard when I staged and that's the top 12. I had a lot of things going on my mind when I went in there," he said.
