\u201cI met Joe and his son Brandon during my rookie year in Top Fuel,\u201d said Krista Baldwin, team owner. \u201cWhat started as a friendship turned into a real partnership. Joe’s not just a sponsor\u2014he\u2019s in the pit with us, getting dirty and helping out during turnarounds. We\u2019re proud to showcase BPK on our dragster at their home track.\u201d<\/p>\n

After a narrow miss in Norwalk qualifying last year\u2014just six thousandths of a second\u2014KBR is laser-focused on redemption. With veteran driver Spencer Massey behind the wheel and tuner Scott Graham leading the charge, the team is ready to light up the boards.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving Spencer drive the cheetah dragster is a dream,\u201d Krista added. \u201cHe\u2019s a hero of mine, and now he\u2019s driving our car. With his experience and our crew\u2019s dedication, we\u2019re aiming for consistent, fast runs all weekend.\u201d<\/p>\n
