Alexis DeJoria Seeking First Four-Wide Victory this Weekend in Vegas
/Four-Wide is a different kind of beast. If you have ever held witness to this event in person you know the amount of sensory overload that goes along with having four nitromethane burning, 11,000 horsepower hotrods all staging at once.
Las Vegas 1 Event Highlights:
Two-time event champion (2014, 2016)
Note: The Las Vegas 1 four-wide format was first introduced in 2018
2021 Las Vegas 1 Recap:

Noteworthy:
DeJoria is a two-time Las Vegas 1 winner but is seeking her first victory at a four-wide event
Quotable:
“The first couple of races this season have been a bit of a learning curve for our Bandero team with our new set up, but we’re chipping away at it and continue to make progress. Of course, we’re all ready to get to Vegas where we’ve been successful in the past. I’ve had a couple of wins at the Spring Vegas race but have yet to bring home the hardware from a four-wide event, so that’s definitely on my list of conquests that I’m looking to check off. Hopefully, we can accomplish that this weekend and get our first win of the season.”
