Carlsbadistan’s grand daddy of drag racers, Ron Capps, returns to Pacific Raceways in Seattle, Washington for the NHRA Northwest Nationals and the site of his first professional NHRA win, according to a story on The Auto Channel.
Since then, he has won 29 titles in the Funny Car class, including his 1998 triumph in Seattle. He was also runner-up at the NHRA Northwest Nationals in 2001, 2006 and 2008, and No. 1 qualifier in 1997. So, it’s safe to say that Seattle is a favorite venue for the California native who drives the NAPA AUTO PARTS Dodge Charger Funny Car in the 2010 NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series.
Watch Ron this weekend on ESPN2 at 7 PM Saturday and 8:30 PM Sunday. Finals on ESPN3 Sunday at 4 PM.
