On this fired
up episode of the NHRA Insider host Brian Lohnes talks with Shawn
Reed Racing crew chief Rob Wendland and JCM Top Fuel pilot Tony
Schumacher about a multitude of behind the scenes topics in
professional drag racing.
Wendland talks
about the massive undertaking of getting a new Top Fuel operation
off the ground. From the literal nuts and bolts, to the work, how
the labor is divided, how a new team functions together, and the
expectations he has for the 2024 season. This is as insightful as
it gets into the world of a crew chief overseeing a hue project
being done over a short period of time. How does this all
come together? Wendland spills the beans on every inch of
it.
Tony
Schumacher, the eight time Top Fuel champion is the second guest on
this show and the conversation ranges from the legacy his late
father Don left in the sport, his feelings on the 2023 season at
JCM Racing, the shock and surprise of a primary sponsor leaving
unexpectedly, his feelings on the topic, becoming a driver coach
for incoming FIA Top Fuel champion Ida Zetterstrom, and a ton
more.
