After first win in Denver, Capps returns to site of first win Ron Capps is in his 12th season driving a Funny Car, but he got his start and his first Professional victory in Top Fuel in 1995, when the relatively unknown and inexperienced Top Alcohol Dragster driver piloted Roger Primm’s Top Fueler to a surprising victory at the NHRA Northwest Nationals in Seattle. This weekend, 14 years after defeating Cory McClenathan in Tuesday’s rain-delayed final round, Capps returns to Pacific Raceways, where he will try to win his second race in as many weeks and sixth of the season.[ Visit Website ] Jul 14, 2009, 20:07

Off-season changes prime Johnson for career year When talking top drivers in Pro Stock, Allen Johnson’s name has long been in the mix, but never has his name come up so often in such conversations as it has this year. A series of moves in the off-season designed to strengthen every aspect of his program, from the addition of co-crew chief Jeff Perley to Johnson himself working to improve his driving, has generated a lot of buzz around the Mopar driver and propelled him to front-runner status alongside the powerhouse KB Racing and Cagnazzi Racing teams. It’s a role Johnson welcomes and believes is definitely warranted.[ Visit Website ] Mar 2, 2009, 21:15
