Will Darian Boesch Win TWO Championships this season? One? None? It’s all on the table!
There is no driver coming into Pomona with more potential variance in outcome than Darian Boesch. And he’s not even racing in Pomona. He’s coming into the season finale leading both Top Dragster and Top Sportsman. Will he end the weekend as the 4th driver in NHRA history to win 2 world championship in the […]
