Jimmy Hidalgo, Jr. is the favorite in Super Stock… but it’s not over! Kris Whitfield is the favorite in SC… but it’s not over! JJ Brock is the favorite in SG… but it’s FAR from over! Luke does his best to break down all the scenarios (and even gives some odds) in today’s Daily Driver!
As we come into the final two weeks of the season, only the Stock Eliminator and TAFC titles have been determined. Today, Luke breaks down the favorites and contenders in the “fast” classes: Top Dragster, Top Sportsman, and Competition Eliminator!
Only two events remain in the 2025 NHRA Lucas Oil season! In this episode of Daily Driver, I’m recapping all the action from Las Vegas, a weekend that favored the points leaders. No lead changes this time, which is something you don’t see often this late in the year.
In this episode of Daily Driver, we’re diving into the “nothing to lose” mindset. I’ve learned over the years that when I race with that mindset, I perform at my best. The real challenge? Figuring out how to tap into that mindset consistently.
In this episode of The Nerd Out, fair warning, it’s going to run longer than 10 minutes, we’re diving into the incredible drama of Super Gas. Over the past three seasons, the chase has come down to Pomona, and it feels like destiny is leading us right back there again. As we head into this weekend, 11 drivers remain mathematically in the hunt for the world championship and all 11 are entered in the West Coast races.
Today, we’re resetting the stage in the 8.90 Super Comp category as we head into the final three weeks of the season. It’s fair to say the 2025 season has been all about one man, Kris Whitfield. But there’s a twist… he waived two events that he actually went on to win. Because of that, the championship isn’t quite locked up just yet.
Short of Super Gas, the Super Stock title race may be the most compelling. Reigning champ Jimmy Hidalgo, Jr. is the leader in the clubhouse with what “should” be a fairly comfortable lead… But his two closest contenders have combined for NINE NHRA World Championships!
Over the next week I’m going to try my best to set the stage for the remaining 3 weeks of the season. Today I’m focusing on the Stock and Comp classes.
Continuing on with the Nerd Out series and this week I’m turning the spotlight back on Top Dragster.
