GAINESVILLE, Fla. Throughout last years season-ending NHRA Mission Drag Racing Series event at In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip, Greg Anderson had the car to beat.

From snagging the No. 1 qualifier to ousting every driver in his way to the final, Anderson willed his KB Titan Racing team to another Pro Stock championship after knocking out teammate Dallas Glenn in the last pass of the year.

Flash-forward nearly four months and the same story was writing itself at Gainesville Raceway during the 56th annual Amalie Motor Oil NHRA Gatornationals.

Anderson had reached new heights with a record-breaking 6.443 ET on Friday, the fastest in class history.

Once again entering Sundays eliminations, Anderson was disposing his opponents all the way to the finals.

Then Glenn pulled up beside Anderson for the coveted Gatornationals crown, where he was chomping at the bit.

We got back to the pit, I did my normal turnaround and then the NHRA guys said, Hey, were kinda fighting some weather coming in, how quick can you get up there?

I said, Ill be ready as soon as Greg is, Glenn smiled.

I was definitely eager to get up there. I think I had my jacket and my earplugs in before I even left the pit. I was ready for him.

Glenn truly was ready as he ran away with ease after Anderson endured issues at the green light.

While a win in the Gatornationals is a drag racers dream, Glenn felt the final round had even more potential out of his race car, which ran a 6.549 ET at 211.13 mph.

To go up there in the finals, we wanted to go up there and try to throw one down, Glenn said. Gregs got a little bit more aggressive than mine did. Shook a little bit there in low gear. It definitely had more in it than the 54.

From a team perspective, KB Titan topped arch rivals Elite Motorsports with ease on Sunday. Elite was only able to get one of its cars in the semifinals (Jeg Coughlin Jr.).

Anderson took care of Coughlin while Glenn topped teammate Cory Reed in the final four. It was a stellar performance from KB Titan as Glenn credited the teams engine department.

We come out here to Gainesville, we qualify KB Titan cars one through four, Glenn said. We almost had all of them in the semis by less than two thousandths.

As far as KB Titan goes, all that hard work that the engine guys did over the offseason paid off.
