Capps, NAPA start celebration for 50 years of Funny Cars with win at Winternationals, start Mello Yello season on Fox Last Sunday was Valentine’s Day but the season-opening NHRA Circle K Winternationals in Pomona, Calif., didn’t show much love to Don Schumacher Racing. That is, unless you are Ron Capps and the NAPA AUTO PARTS team led by crew chief Rahn Tobler and assistant Eric Lane who opened the 2016 NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series season by winning the Funny Car title to begin a special year that commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Funny Car. Their 2016 Dodge Charger R/T was the only one of seven DSR entries to advance past the second round of Mello Yello eliminations and they went all the way. Capps and the NAPA team were dominant all weekend during the first of 24 national events with seven of their eight runs in the 3- second range including all four in qualifying that helped the team earn the No. 2 spot. “I have the best team in the business, and they gave me a great racecar,” he said. “All four runs in the 3s in qualifying, I don’t think anyone else did that. I knew we had a good racecar. Tobler and I have grown so much together. It’s like a marriage. He really keeps me in line on race day. We had a heckuva day.” And it was a banner weekend for NAPA Racing.

Photo by Joe Jennings American Auto Racing Writers & Broadcasters Association, Inc. (www.aarwba.org) “Dedicated To Increasing Media Coverage Of Motor Sports” By Joe Jennings When NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon retired from NA- SCAR's premier series, he left the door open for occa- sional racing elsewhere and when Wayne Taylor came calling, he quickly accepted the latter's offer to co-drive his new prototype sports car in the 55th running of the Rolex 24 at Daytona. "It is a dream of mine to drive a car like this. It is fun for me and I treat this as if I am a rookie," Gordon said dur- ing a press conference prior to the race. The car was called the Konica Minolta Cadillac DPi-V.R, marking Ca- dillac's return to the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Se- ries after a several year hiatus. Gordon raced previously with the Taylor team at Daytona in 2007, and they finished on the podium, so he knew Jeff Gordon and Ricky and Jordan Taylor signing what he was getting into. Regardless, he trained hard, autographs before the race. particularly after initial tests of the car took its toll on his body. Co-driving with Gordon was veteran racer Max Angelelli along with Wayne Taylor's two sons, Ricky and Jordan. Not only did they have to do battle with 54 other teams, they had to endure cold and damp weather, as it rained in various degrees during slightly more than half of the race.
