What a great win for Paul Lee and the whole team. I doubt that will be his only win this year.

One of the best NHRA finales I’ve seen for Funny Car and Pro Stock!

What a win for Paul Lee!

Very happy for Paul. Also didn't know John Medlin was on his team. Thought he retired. So cool for him to be apart of that long awaited first win for Paul Lee, & on the anniversary of Eric Medlin's passing.
