Bob Tasca III was able to race Saturday despite having the NHRA disallow his second round qualifying run on Friday.

NHRA Funny Car competitor Bob Tasca III won Saturday’s Mission #2Fast2Tasty NHRA Challenge at zMAX Dragway with an intake manifold given to him by four-time NHRA Top Fuel champion Steve Torrence, but it didn’t squelch his anger at the NHRA for disqualifying his team’s manifold earlier in the day. “They pissed me off,” Tasca said about the NHRA . “I was as pissed off as I have ever been in a race. I just used that as energy to go up and kick their ass.

Media blasting is a process using compressed air to blast the surface of an item with various types of gritty substances called media. The process is used to remove contaminants or create etching, and to prepare its surface for powder coating. “We walked into a buzzsaw this morning,” Tasca said. “Very disappointed with the way NHRA handled it.
