Lucas Oil NHRA Winternationals Super Gas winner Pete Zak
At the end of 2013, Pete Zak drove to his first national event title in Pomona, and he returned to Auto Club Raceway at Pomona to open 2019 with a second title in Super Gas. In his ’27-T Ford roadster, Zak motored to the winner’s circle with a slowing 10.73 after final-round opponent Evan Kowalski fouled by a slim four-thousandths margin. The semifinal battle between Zak and Mike Wiblishouser was easily one of the best races of the weekend regardless of class with both cars separated by just .0005-second at the finish line stripe.
