Nitro tuning wizard Alan Johnson left Mike Salinas and his Scrappers Racing NHRA Top Fuel operation at the end of last season to work with Salinas’ Top Fuel competitor Doug Kalitta.
Never mind that Johnson also left Tony Schumacher and Steve Torrence, both of whom went on to win championships, and Brittany Force, who remains a perennial title contender. But many felt sorry for Salinas, figuring his dreams of a championship were dashed.

It came down to a pair of Radials vs. the World '69 Camaros vying for the Lights Out 13 title Sunday afternoon at South Georgia Motorsports Park, where Ken Quartuccio prevailed over Bryan Markiewicz for his first major Duck X Productions win.
Joining Quartuccio in the SGMP winner's circle was Pro 275 racer Mo Hall, who successfully defended his 2021 Lights Out win, as well as his 2021 Duck X Sweet 16 victory at the same track.
Quartuccio made single runs in each of the first two elimination rounds, then overcame a holeshot by Giust in the quarterfinals. He next beat number-one qualifier Jason Lee, who lost traction off the hit in the semis to set up the final against Markiewicz.

Well, it’s safe to say that’s not the case.
