Matt Smith and JR Todd join Brian Lohnes on this episode of
the NHRA Insider Podcast to talk about their respective weekends in
Bristol, Tennessee at the Thunder Valley Nationals and to chat
about the last two races of the season. Both men are in a strong
championship position with Smith leading the Pro Stock Motorcycle
category into Las Vegas and Todd launching himself into third place
on the strength of his Bristol race day.
For Matt Smith, the conversation revolves around consistency,
not beating himself, and letting the world know that Angie will be
back on her motorcycle to defend her win last year at what was the
season-closing event. He talks about buying a Suzuki, building a
Suzuki, and having his options open for 2021 as to what he plans on
riding. Interesting stuff!
JR Todd talks about coming away from a Bristol Sunday one
round short of a win but far stronger in points and confidence.
After struggling in qualifying, Todd and his DHL Toyota Camry crew
mowed down the likes of John Force, Matt Hagan, and Ron Capps in
eliminations before drawing the short straw against Alexis DeJoria
in the final round. An interesting conversation with a reenergized
former champion!
