MORRISON, Colo. (AP) — Spencer Massey edged teammate Tony Schumacher in the final elimination round to win the Top Fuel dragster division at the Mopar Mile High Nationals at Bandimere Speedway on Sunday.

Massey, part of the Don Schumacher racing team with Schumacher’s son, Tony, hit 269.67 mph and covered the 1,000-foot straight-line course in 4.150 seconds in his nitro-fueled dragster for his fifth career victory and third this season.

John Force took the Funny Car division, coasting to victory after Matt Hagan drew a red light infraction for leaving a split-second early. A red light infraction also figured in Mike Edwards’ victory in the Pro Stock dragster division.

Karen Stoffer beat Michael Phillips to win the Pro Stock motorcycle division.
