Greg Anderson secured his sixth NHRA Pro Stock championship at Pomona, defeating KB Titan Racing teammate Dallas Glenn in a dramatic final round. At 63 years old, Anderson's victory demonstrates his enduring excellence in the sport.

The championship came down to the final event, where Anderson needed an outright win to claim the title. As the No. 1 qualifier, he progressed through elimination rounds, defeating Kenny Delco and Corey Reed before a crucial semifinal victory over points leader Aaron Stanfield.

The final round against Glenn was decided by a mere 0.0022 seconds, marking Anderson's 106th career victory and first since April. This championship ties him with Erica Enders for second-most titles in the Pro Stock class.

"I'm going to quit as soon as I can't win anymore," Anderson stated, addressing retirement speculation. "Apparently, I can't quit yet."

The victory showcased the competitive nature of Pro Stock, where veteran champions like Anderson and Enders face increasing pressure from rising stars such as Stanfield and Glenn. Despite this new generation of talent, Anderson's experience and skill prevailed in a season-defining moment.

The championship victory was particularly meaningful for Anderson and his KB Titan team, demonstrating that age is no barrier to success in NHRA Pro Stock racing. His achievement was celebrated by fans and fellow competitors alike, reinforcing his legacy in the sport.

"It's not Greg Anderson. It's KB Titan," Anderson emphasized, crediting his team for the championship success. "All those great people that work on my race team, I can't thank them enough."
