Best Bets and Picks for NHRA New England Nationals

Top Fuel

Event Winner Odds

Tony Stewart has shaken up the Top Fuel series, and he carries favorable odds into the New England Nationals. He boasts the best form in the division leading into New Hampshire, having progressed into the final round in his last four events this season, including two wins in his previous three starts.

Despite the sensational work by Stewart, he is overlooked in the odds by pre-season favorites Antron Brown and Shawn Langdon. Brown bagged the season-opener in Florida and finished second in Vegas, in his only noteworthy results. Langdon has entered three finals this year, winning twice and losing the Gatornationals to Brown.

Funny Car

Event Winner Odds

A third consecutive final for Austin Prock in the last round kept the Pittsboro native in pole position in the Funny Car Series. Prock holds a 51-point lead over Jack Beckman, who beat him at Route 66 Raceway. Prock boasts two trips inside Victory Lane in his previous three starts, while Beckman has prevailed in two of his last four events.

Bob Tasca III and Matt Hagan return to a track where they have both taken top honors. Hagan is the 2022 Champion in the FC class, while Tasca II took the checkered flag in 2023. JR Todd is battling this series, failing to progress beyond E2 all season. However, the Floridan has soldiered on to the semi-finals in two of his previous four trips to the New England Dragway.

Pro Stock

Event Winner Odds

The Pro Stock series has already morphed into a two-driver race between Greg Anderson and Dallas Glenn. The latter gentleman leads the series after winning the previous two 4-wide events, taking his tally up to three triumphs in the campaign. Glenn is yet to finish outside of the top two positions in 2025.

Greg Anderson is only 11 points behind Glenn, never finishing beyond the top three. Anderson carries two victories under the hood into New Hampshire and starts after a runner-up performance behind Dallas at the American Rebel Light NHRA 4-Wide Nationals. Erica Enders has struggled this year, but she enjoys fond memories of this track, winning in 2022 and finishing second last season.
