It was the second NHRA Four-Wide event in just over a month, as the NGK NTK NHRA Four-Wide Nationals rumbled into Charlotte, North Carolina this past weekend. And the event gave racing fans plenty to cheer about. So let’s get to it—here’s this week’s NHRA Wrap-Up.

2021 NGK NTK NHRA Four-Wide Pro Stock Results
We couldn’t be happier to report that rookie driver Dallas Glenn brought home his first career event win. (We sat down with Glenn a few months ago to talk about his foray into Pro Stock driving; you can read it here.) Glenn’s 6.540-second ET/209.88 mph pass was enough to best other up-and-coming Pro Stock racers Mason McGaha, Fernando Cuadra Jr., and Troy Coughlin Jr. in the final round.

2021 NGK NTK NHRA Four-Wide Top Fuel Results
Steve Torrence continued his domination of Top Fuel four-wide events with another victory in Charlotte. In a final round quartet alongside Courtney Force, Antron Brown, and Josh Hart, Torrence notched a 3.71-second, 329.10 mph pass to secure the victory.

2021 NGK NTK NHRA Four-Wide Funny Car Results
We honestly wondered if we’d ever be able to say John Force’s name in a Wrap Up again, after the pandemic caused him to withdraw from much of the 2020 season. But Force is back—and he’s winning. In a final round matchup with Alexis Dejoria, Cruz Pedregon, and JR Todd, it was Force’s 3.916-second, 328.78 mph pass that gave him career victory number 152.

2021 NGK NTK NHRA Four-Wide Pro Stock Motorcycle Results
The drought is over for Steve Johnson as he nabbed his first victory in seven years. And it was over in a big way, as Johnson not only took the win, he set a track record, notched the third-quickest run in class history, and made the fastest run ever for a Suzuki in a process. In the Final Round matchup with Matt Smith, Karen Stoffer, and Joey Gladstone, Johnson crossed the beams first with a blistering 6.729-second, 198.03 mph pass.
