NHRA Today: Tim Wilkerson looks ahead to new season
NHRA fan favorite Funny Car driver Tim Wilkerson checked in via Skype with NHRA reporter Lewis Bloom at the Wally Parks NHRA Studio as he prepares for the start of the 2017 Mello Yello season.
NHRA fan favorite Funny Car driver Tim Wilkerson checked in via Skype with NHRA reporter Lewis Bloom at the Wally Parks NHRA Studio as he prepares for the start of the 2017 Mello Yello Drag Racing season.
Wilkerson offered a quick recap of last season’s campaign , which started out great with wins in Phoenix and Charlotte -- becoming the first repeat Funny Car winner in 2016 -- before things took a turn for the worse with crashes at both Topeka and Denver. Wilkerson eventually regrouped by the end of the 2016 season. Moving forward to the 2017 season, Wilkerson discussed team changes for 2017 coming in the personal department and answered the interesting question “In a perfect world with an unlimited budget, who would you hire as a crew chief?”
Wilkerson will join many of the NHRA Mello Yello nitro teams testing prior to the Circle K Winternationals at Wild Horse Pass Raceway Park in Chandler, Ariz.
