Ron Capps ready for the season opener as a Owner/Driver

“To say this is the most excited I’ve ever felt heading into the Winternationals would be an understatement. Obviously, 1997, making my debut as a rookie driving for Don ‘the Snake’ Prudhomme was pretty exciting and overwhelming, but coming into this season as a team owner and driver, and defending our championship, and then you add in everything that’s been going on in this very short off-season, plus having the backing of NAPA AUTO PARTS and GearWrench, it just gives me a lot of satisfaction.

“Pre-season testing went great. We had tremendous success with what we wanted to try. Guido (Dean Antonelli), (John) Medlen, and our entire NAPA AutoCare team had a plan. We went to Phoenix, made the runs we wanted to make, and now we’re set for Ron Capps Motorsports to make its first official NHRA appearance and begin our Camping World Series championship defense. It’s going to be a lot of fun this year. I’m very excited to get the season started in Pomona where we won the 2021 championship just a few months ago.”
