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!
