With only one week before the season-opening Amalie Oil Texas Nationals, IHRA Pro Stock Standout Jeff Dobbins received the unfortunate news that the team owners were unable to acquire financial backing for the 2007 season.

“This is just about the worst thing that could happen to a driver. We have tested several times over the winter and I felt that we were in pretty good shape to start the season. It is very disappointing to hear this news with just one week to go.” said Dobbins.

Dobbins, a former IHRA Top Sportsman World Champion, made the move to Pro Stock in 2002 were he became IHRA Professional Rookie of the Year and finished 4th in championship points. Along with being a multi-time national event winner, Dobbins has finished in the top ten in points in every year of competition.

He is best known for his starting line skills, leading in reaction time average in all years of Pro Stock competition and is regarded as one of the best Pro Stock  drivers in the country.
