Greg Anderson raced to his first Pro Stock victory of the season Sunday at the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals.

Larry Dixon, Tim Wilkerson and Matt Smith also were winners in their respective categories at the NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series event at Summit Racing Equipment Motorsports Park.

In winning the Pro Stock final, three-time world champ Anderson pocketed more than $125,000 for the weekend by sweeping today’s eliminations and Saturday’s K&N Horsepower Challenge all-star event, which includes a $25,000 double-up bonus from NHRA.

Anderson outran Allen Johnson in the final round for his 61st career victory. Anderson’s Summit Racing Pontiac GXP posted a winning performance of 6.722 seconds at 204.54 mph to hold off Johnson’s Team Mopar Dodge Avenger, which slowed at mid-track and finished in 6.982 at 159.38.

“This is beyond a dream weekend,” said Anderson, who also swept both races in 2004. “I couldn’t have even have dreamed anything this big before we came here this week. I just hoped and prayed that we came here with a good performance and functioned properly throughout the weekend and just had a slight chance of sneaking a few round-wins and maybe a lucky victory away, and we ended up sweeping the weekend and taking every doggone nickel they had to give. It’s been a long time since we’ve had a weekend like this. I guess I’ve got to go back three or four years when we had a car that could do these things.”

Corey Jankowski is on a roll at Dells Raceway Park, an ASA Member Track in Wisconsin Dells, WI. Last season he captured the Late Model Championship in his rookie season and this season he has already visited victory lane twice. Now has the overall lead in the 2010 Joe Gibbs Driven Racing Oil ASA Member Track National Championship.

Jankowski started racing at DRP in their Super Stock division where he dominated season after season. Last year he moved up to the top division and is enjoying it, "It's really cool for us because I always like to be in the main event," Jankowski recently said. "And now ASA is looking at us and saying hey you could do something with Joe Gibbs Racing and I am like, Oh Yeah...I am liking this!"

He has a simple approach when it comes to the Joe Gibbs Driven Racing Oil ASA Member Track National Championship. "For the national title, I don't really race for points. I don't race for stuff like that, I just race to win," Jankowski explained. "I just do my best and when it is all said and done, championships are all extra credit to me. I just go out there and go 110%. That is all I can really do."

When asked if he did win the National Championship and got the tryout with Joe Gibbs Racing, he would see this as something special? "It would be another golden moment, another top in my career in racing," Jankowski said. "Last year was my top so far by winning the track championship in my rookie season."
