DSR’s teams are in solid positions to make runs at NHRA world championships and $500,000 bonuses that go along with the titles. Leading the way will be Matt Hagan and the Magneti Marelli Offered by Mopar/Rocky Boots Dodge Charger R/T team that have made a miraculous turnaround after not qualifying for the Countdown a year ago and will start this year’s edition as the No. 1 seed. Hagan’s team, the 2011 world champion, suffered through 2012 without winning an event title or No. 1 qualifying position, but after 18 events this year with new crew chief Dickie Venables and rookie assistant Michael Knudsen the team has won four titles and four poles heading to the Countdown.

  • DSR's 2012 Traxxas Nitro Shootout Drivers
    The latest news on NHRA Drag Racing’s Super Team DON SCHUMACHER RACING FRIDAY, SEPT. 21, 2012 BROWNSBURG, IND. Shootout adds to big Texas weekend for Capps; ‘Sarge’ not ready to surrender Top Fuel lead ENNIS, Texas (Sept. 21, 2012) – There are concrete reasons why this weekend’s NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series event could be the best ever at the Texas Motorplex outside of Dallas. At least we hope it will be for Don Schumacher Racing, which is living up to its moniker as the “biggest and baddest team” in drag racing. Heading to the ’Plex, the first all- concrete dragstrip, DSR is first in Top Fuel with the U.S. Army’s Tony Schumacher and first in Funny Car with NAPA AUTO PARTS’ Ron Capps in a Dodge Charger R/T after last weekend’s opening round of the Countdown to the Championship. The priority for the top-10 drivers in both nitro categories of the Countdown is going rounds and winning titles. But there will be $100,000 up for grabs among eight Funny Car drivers, including three from DSR. The inaugural Traxxas Nitro Shootout will be Saturday concurrently with qualifying that day and the Shootout champ will earn a $100,000 bonus for his team. Capps – the top seed – and DSR teammate Jack Beckman and Johnny Gray want to match the feat of teammate Spencer Massey, who won the Top Fuel version of the Shootout three weeks ago during the U.S. Nationals near Indianapolis. DSR’s 2012 Traxxas Nitro Shootout drivers F/C No.
