Apr 17, 2024

On this
episode of the NHRA Insider Podcast, host Brian Lohnes is joined by
Jasmine Salinas, Bob Tasca, and Del Worsham to discuss the Las
Vegas 4-Wide Nationals, growth, strategy, and how great teams get
their cars back on track. 

 

Jasmine
Salinas is the first guest on the show and a great conversation
ensues about her early period in Top Fuel, what she has learned so
far, how she has evolved as a racer, and how her competitive
personality was formed in the sport of drag racing where she has
dedicated so much of her time and effort for the last several
years. 

 

Bob Tasca
talks about his team’s measured approach to the Vegas race, what
they tested after the race, and how his relationship with his crew
chiefs ultimately has lead to them having the fastest funny car in
history and one of the most competitive in the NHRA. A high energy
discussion!

 

Finally, Del
Worsham recounts his team’s struggles, his own personal grief over
the performance of the funny car he tunes, and how they committed
themselves to righting their own ship which resulted in a car that
went rounds in Phoenix  and Las Vegas. It’s an insightful crew
chief chat. 

 

This is a jam
packed episode with something for everyone!
