Though we’re still getting used to having the Winternationals in April, it seems like the racers themselves have adjusted nicely. Even better, now in the third race of the season, many teams are starting to see the results of all the hard work done in the offseason—and the fans are too. So let’s jump right into this week’s NHRA Wrap-Up.

2023 NHRA Winternationals Pro Stock Results
After her historic win at the Arizona Nationals last week, it was no surprise to see Camrie Caruso climbing the Pro Stock ladder again this week, but it was Dallas Glenn who cut her run short in the Semifinals. Then in the final race, Glenn dispatched a hard-charging Matt Hartford with a 6.546-second, 209.92 mph pass to best Hartford’s 6.558 @ 210.44. The win also put Glenn atop the Pro Stock points standings.
Dallas Glenn was a guest on the OnAllCylinders Podcast. You can listen to the episode here.
