KA-BOOM! – Cruz Pedregon clocked a 4.15-second elapsed time at 280 mph as the engine of his Snap-on Toyota Camry blew up approaching the finish line. The blast completely shattered the body, sending pieces of it flying in all directions. After he exited the car on his own, Pedregon said he had “no warning. It’s just part of Funny Car racing now. They just don’t like certain things. And it didn’t like that.”
