After a long drive from Dallas to Brownsburg to drop off the race car at the shop, then home to Chicago I pulled into my driveway and noticed the time. 3:43 A number to some, but a lot more to me. If you know, you know…. Maybe it’s a sign??? Maybe coincidence??? #343 @NHRA

Leaving Texas with mixed emotions. We put career-best numbers on the board with a 4.038 at 311.22 mph in our Howards Cams/Competition Products Funny Car, but came up just short of a spot in Sunday’s field. Bummed we won’t be racing tomorrow, but proud of this crew for all the work they’ve put into this car. The support from everyone this weekend has been incredible, and we appreciate every bit of it! We’ll spend the offseason building on what we’ve learned and working toward a more consistent race car. See you back in Gainesville in 2027! @CompProd | @ImpactbyMCS | @GoodsonTools | @ArtofFast | #reidrockers | #felprogaskets | @maximausa | #KingTrainingInnovations | #heatracingteam | #EnthusiastPower | #gatescorporation | @txmplex
