NHRA Top Alcohol Funny Car driver Alexis De Joria and the Tequila
Patrón/Jack O'Bannon Racing team will be looking to bounce back during this
weekend's Division 7 Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series opener at Firebird Raceway
just outside of Phoenix. The team tested extensively in Phoenix during the
preseason and backed that up with another test session in Bakersfield, Calif.,
after the season-opening CARQUEST Auto Parts Winternationals in Pomona, Calif.
De Joria hopes to duplicate the career-best numbers she has run in testing in
the Tequila
Patrón Dodge Charger and make a strong showing in Phoenix this
weekend.
