Brent Jones continued his dominance over the Drag Parts.com Blown Alcohol Thunder Series by winning the “Nitro Nights Under the Lights” race in Yakima, Washington on July 1. Jones driving the Lawless Funny Car was instated into the final round to take on top qualifier Dane Lachelt when no. 2 qualifier Rich Bailey was unable to make the call after hurting his engine in the second stanza. The finals were a great a side-by-side race with both drivers exceeding the 4.25 index. Jones blasted to a 4.24 over Lachelt’s quicker 4.22. Since Jones broke out by the least amount he was declared the winner.
Lachelt took home both the Good Vibrations Best Reaction Time Award and the TCS Products Low ET of the Event Award. The series now heads for the “Big Sky Swing” with an event near Butte, Montana on July 9th and Billings, Montana, August 5th. Currently Jones leads the series followed by Kelly Flansaas, Rich Bailey, Dane Lachelt and Frank Miller rounds out the top five.
