NHRA Insider Podcast

On this episode of the NHRA Insider Podcast powered by Speedmaster, host Brian Lohnes is joined by winning Top Fuel Crew Chief Mike Green and top 10 Funny Car racer Blake Alexander. The conversations are entertaining and enlightening on several aspects of the sport. Green talks about one of the most challenging race-winning weekends of his decorated career. Justin Ashley was available to make a single qualifying run Friday and then left the track for religious observance. Returning Sunday, Ashley and the entire team put on a furious performance that garnered them the Top Fuel points lead and dropped jaws along the way. He takes us all inside the winning approach. Blake Alexander is in the best running funny car of his career right now and the performance continues to impress. Running 3.831 and then 3.87 at Dallas showed that Jim Head, Dave Leahy, and the whole team have their program in good order and he's driving to match. Lohnes and Alexander talk about the car, the preparation, and all the behind the scenes business work Blake does to sustain and grow his career. That and more on this show!
