Ron Capps' blog: How time flies

October 06, 2010

Another NHRA Full Throttle drag racing season is winding down. It causes you to sit back and reflect on how time flies.
 

Ron Capps' blog: An emotional moment ahead

This weekend's NHRA Nationals in Norwalk, Ohio, is going to be one of the bigger races in my career.
 

Ron Capps' column: No quarter

April 09, 2010

Four-wide was fine, while challenging, but the rising clamor for a return to quarter-mile racing is short-sighted.
 

Forethought on four-wide

March 07, 2010

I know the fans are excited about the four-wide racing. The place will be packed, and everybody is talking about it. But, I'll be honest with you, the people most apprehensive about it are the drivers at this point.
 

Ron Capps on how to improve the Countdown

December 10, 2009

"I would like to provide some ideas and/or suggestions as to how the NHRA might be able to improve the way the Countdown plays out and perhaps make it more balanced for most of the competitors."

December 05, 2009

"For the NAPA team to win the most races this season, lead the points for most of the year, then fall short and end up third in the points, reiterates how important it is to peak at the right time, especially now that we have the Countdown to 1 playoffs for the last six races."

This weekend at zMAX Dragway in Concord, N.C., across the street from Lowe's Motor Speedway, we'll be racing our second event in the Charlotte area. It is also the first race of our Countdown to 1 playoffs, which is NHRA drag racing's "Chase."
 

Ron Capps' diary: closing on the Countdown

August 17, 2009

Our NHRA Full Throttle season is coming down to two races before the Countdown to 1 playoffs begin following our Daytona 500/Indy 500 - the U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis on Labor Day weekend.
