Four-time world champion Matt Hagan has set the strip on fire at Las Vegas as he won the Funny Car race at the Dodge NHRA Nevada Nationals with a weekend best time. In just 3.877 seconds at 327 mph, he beat Austin Prock, a win which was the third of the season, 55 of his career, and sixth one at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

When asked, “How proud are you right now?”, Hagan straight up said that it was a must-win race for him. But he didn’t waste any time before crediting the entire win to his team, Tony Stewart Racing, throwing special light on his crew chief and car chief. “You know I’m super proud of my guys, Mike Knudsen, Alex Conaway.. making the calls for the first time at every race track we show up to.
“Super super, proud of my guys, I mean. Just Unbelievable. Crew chiefs win races, man,” he said. He easily beat Prock (6.424) with twice the speed, and Prock’s tires smoking off the starting line certainly helped him. This win was his first over Prock in three final round matchups.

Hagan’s TSR teammate, Tony Stewart, qualifies for the semi-finals. With this win, his hunt for his fifth title continues. Currently, Hagan is tied at second in the all-time champion list with Kenny Berstein and Don Prudhomme, who’ve also won four titles like him.
