Yes, the two-wheel Professional category remains the most economical way to become an NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series IS champion, but they don't run on gasoline - they run on Benjamins. The two joined forces late in the 2018 season and live five minutes away from one another in Florida, where Reed is putting together a legitimate race shop. The two riders are on the flashiest bikes in drag racing, they aren't getting their hair cut at Great Clips, and Cory Reed's freshly groomed mustache screams, \"I don't care if you like it.\"

The Auto Club Chevy made it down the track on all 11 of its eliminations runs to start the season, pairing impeccable consistency with electric speed. The Auto Club Chevy averaged a 3.994 elapsed time - the only full-time Funny Car to run in the three-second range (the next quickest was Johnson at 4.01), but that didn't come with consistency. [...]humans love coincidences, and if Hight earns his third Funny Car title at the end of the season, well ... rockets do regularly take off in Florida, right? \"I've never seen a fuel car so consistent as what I have right now, especially a Funny Car.

JACK BECKMAN REMAINS DIFFICULT TO DEFINE - BUT WE TAKE OUR BEST SHOT he garage sits behind a motorhome, well removed from the house of two-time world champion Jack Beckman. The Super Comp and Funny Car champ got his license in the car, which he first laid eyes on while shucking real Christmas Trees at 12 years old. Beckman made his debut for Don Schumacher Racing in the Matco Tools Funny Car at the Keystone NHRA Nationals in 2006. Infinite Hero will continue to sponsor Beckman's Funny Car through 2020 - that's not a bad deal at a time when the winningest Top Fuel racer in history is on the sidelines and John Force scratches and claws for every penny he has.

Three months later, at 4:44 p.m. Eastern time on Farch 20, the answer came on a resounding pass by Bernstein during qualifying at the Gatornationals, where he and crew chief Dale Armstrong not only broke the 300-mph barrier but shattered it with a pass of 301.70 mph, breaking the last great barrier ... in Top Fuel racing and cementing Bernstein's legacy as \"King of Speed\" in the process. HOUSTON, WE HAVE IGNITION The Top Fuel class of 1992 entered the season skeptical that a 300-mph run was possible, but the annual Houston race opened everyone's eyes as \"records fell like rain,\" according to National Dragster. Pat Austin, in his first full year of Top Fuel competition after a hall of fame Top Alcohol Funny Car career, set the official national record (295.27), but Mike Dunn made the fastest speed of all time with a 297.12-mph burst.

When he isn't cracking jokes with crew chiefs Joe Barlam and (sometimes) Ron Douglas, he's going over welds on the dragster and otherwise servicing the machine he pilots. Maybe that will change, but this is who Vandergriff is right now: A young person coming into a not-so-young category where he both works on the car and drives it while appreciating the privileged position he's in. While nothing fully prepares you for the gut-punching speed of a Top Fuel dragster, you can get accustomed to the mindnumbing routine that comes before it.

After winning the Top Fuel championship in 2011, he joined Kalitta Motorsports in 2013 to race Funny Car and became a champion in a second class, one of a select few to win titles in both nitro categories. Worsham comes back to Kalitta to reinvent himself again, this time as a co-crew chief on Shawn Langdon's Funny Car. [...]the extra set of eyes and the addition of Worsham's wisdom as a Funny Car driver will almost certainly pay dividends for both of Kalitta Motorsports' Funny Car racers.

[...]the pair could focus on the real goal: winning a national championship together. Grubnic announced his departure from the Parts Plus-backed Top Fuel dragster team ahead of the final race of the season as the Top Fuel title escaped its grasp. Jim Oberhofer will crew chief Paul Lee's Funny Car under that umbrella, but the former crew chief for Doug Kalitta is also on hand to help out on Millican's car in the early goings.
