Drew Skillman has definitely figured things out.

The 29-year-old driver drove his Ray Skillman-sponsored Chevy Camaro to its second consecutive NHRA national event win.

Skillman’s latest triumph came Sunday when he beat Bo Butner in the finals of the Mile-High Nationals at Bandimere Speedway in Morrison, Colo.

Skillman clocked his fastest time of the weekend, 6.916 seconds at 198.15 mph to defeat Butner’s 6.953-second run at 198.88 mph.

“I have the best team out here,” Skillman said. “I have a bad Hot Rod. The car was a bracket car. It just kept running the same number, same number. We knew we were close with the tune-up, we knew we were close with the gearing and it just kept repeating. That’s a sign of a good car. When you can repeat like that and go that fast, we have a good car and a great team.”

Skillman, who won at Chicago July 9, the last race on tour before the Mile-High Nationals, now has five career NHRA Pro Stock wins and he won back-to-back races for the first time.

Skillman, who has engine power supplied by Gray Motorsports, had a fabulous weekend in the thin air. He qualified No. 1 and then beat Richie Stevens in the first round, had a bye second round and then ousted Ken Black Racing teammates Jason Line and Bo Butner for the victory.

“Absolutely,” Skillman said when asked if he was thinking about a sweep of the Western Swing. “That’s what I came out here to do. When we tested, that’s when I knew we had something. We will see what happens in Sonoma, (Calif.), we will go one race at a time. Right now, we are king of the hill, but we still have Sonoma and Seattle left, but I feel confident going into it.”

The Toyota NHRA Sonoma Nationals (July 28-30) and NHRA Northwest Nationals (Aug. 4-6) in Seattle, conclude the Western Swing.

Thanks to his trip to the winners circle, Skillman moved up one spot to seventh in the season points standings. His current win streak is impressive considering he lost in the first round three consecutive times at Englishtown, N.J., Bristol, Tenn., and Norwalk, Ohio, before the streak started.

“Just the attitude,” said Skillman about what has changed for his team the last two races. “When you get up and start doing well, it helps everybody around here. We’ve always had the same talent. We’ve had the same pieces. We’ve had the same horsepower. We are just finally utilizing all of it in the same way. I think we definitely have the momentum and momentum is huge in this sport. When everyone feels positive and everyone knows you’re going to kick a**, you move forward like you’re going to. We just have to be aggressive right out of the trailer and as long as we do that, we’re here. We can win.”
