The Nitro Fish colors are taking over Maple Grove. Top Fuel racer Clay Millican has returned to competition in the Nitro Fish-backed Top Fuel dragster, joining Pro Stock racer Greg Stanfield and Pro Stock Motorcycle rider LE Tonglet in waving the colors of Kenny Koretsky's Nitro Fish. Pro Stock racer Bob Yonke is sporting the vibrantly colored Nitro Fish colors as well, driving a GXP owned – and formerly driven – by Koretsky.

The Burleson, Texas, racer's crew, lead by tuner Stanfield, is working to figure out a few issues with Yonke's regular ride, another Pontiac GXP, and break the string of DNQs that have plagued them for the previous four events.

"We just haven't had enough time to test [my car] and sort things out to get it to run as well as we know it will," said Yonke. "We talked with Kenny and he said, 'Well, why don't you bring my other car out, and we can promote Nitro Fish at my home track.' Hopefully, we can get in the show and help Greg [Stanfield], because right now, it's all about helping our teammate win the championship."

Yonke recorded a runner-up at the delayed Arizona NHRA Nationals which began in Phoenix and concluded three weeks late at the Gatornationals in Gainesville. He was also one of four cars to make it to the final round of competition at the first race in Charlotte this season, the inaugural Four-Wide Nationals.

"I kind of threw my team a curveball, trying to get into a new car in Charlotte [at the second event of the season held at zMax Dragway] without really being able to test it," said Yonke. "These cars, they react totally different when you put in a different motor and a different clutch package. Me and my naïve way off thinking, I thought, well we can do this in a couple of days. Well, it doesn't happen that way.

"We're tired of the DNQs, and if I'm not in, I'm not able to help Greg out with the championship chase by giving myself the opportunity to take out Mike Edwards, Greg Anderson, Allen Johnson, Jason Line, or anybody else. I need to be there for my teammate. Kenny and Eddie [Guarnaccia, who tunes the cars with Stanfield] both know this car really well, and Greg knows it because he ran it a few times. This car is running great, and we should have a good opportunity here."
