The KB Titan Racing driver controls eliminations with relentless pace, including a new 6.464-second track record in the quarterfinals at the NHRA Potomac Nationals, underscoring a weekend of outright speed.
114th career NHRA victory delivered at Maryland International Raceway.
He beats reigning champion Dallas Glenn in the final, delivering 6.472 at 212.46 mph for his first victory at this venue and a second Diamond Wally of NHRA’s 75th season.
Starting fourth, Anderson maximizes lane choice through a decisive quarterfinal against KB Titan customer Deric Kramer. Kramer’s 6.489 cannot match Anderson’s 6.464, which proves the performance benchmark.
New Pro Stock track record: 6.464 seconds in the quarterfinals.
The semifinal with Greg Stanfield is marginal. Anderson edges it by .009 seconds, 6.488 to 6.501, extending his lifetime record over Stanfield to 31–17 under high-pressure conditions.
Experience under pressure decides the final. Consistent pace across eliminations delivers the margin over Glenn without overreaching on setup or reaction.
Post-race, Anderson references a recent tribute to NASCAR legend Kyle Busch, who died at 41 ten days earlier, stressing that every win matters because the next is never guaranteed.
Championship gap trimmed to 11 points after Potomac win.
Favourable conditions and a sellout crowd amplify the spectacle. Anderson’s comfort on East Coast tracks complements the surface, rewarding tidy execution and repeatable performance across runs.
From a team perspective, KB Titan’s engine program looks authoritative. The customer-supplier dynamic with Kramer underlines depth, while Anderson’s execution converts that resource into points.
Strategically, the victory compresses the early-season picture. The 11-point gap increases pressure on the leader and highlights the value of banking round-wins before the summer stretch.
Final-winning run: 6.472 seconds at 212.46 mph over Dallas Glenn.
The series shifts to the New England Nationals, June 5–7 at New England Dragway. Anderson arrives with momentum but must maintain discipline through qualifying and eliminations to extend the run.
Across the weekend, coverage also highlighted Pruett and Hagan, Alexis DeJoria, and Antron Brown, reinforcing the Potomac bill’s depth and sellout appeal.
