Bob Tasca promising big changes heading to highly-anticipated Virginia event

Bob Tasca III is currently 10th in a loaded Funny Car class, which is an improvement from this point in the 2018, but Tasca is far from satisfied. That means major moves on the car and with personnel following a second-round loss in Atlanta.

This pretty much confirms one of teams the swaps are between, but we were all pretty sure Tasca was one of the teams.

Clapshaw's car was great looking and was called Fuelish Pleasure and I have a beautiful print hanging on my wall of fmethat he sold at his pit of the car coming off the line at night.

 

[Mike_in_Boston]

Based on the wording of the rumor, my best guess: Mike Neff going to Bob Tasca.

 

[NitroRichFire]

I guess we have to look at who use to be on a Ford bodied nitro funny car team in the past, I can think of Jimmy Prock, Mike Neff, John Medlen, Dickie Venables, Rob Flynn, Dean Antonelli, John Schaffer, Danny Hood, Austin Coil, Bernie Fedderly, with my mind being old, have I missed anyone?

That doesn't make a lot of sense as Snake brokered that deal.

But is it considered a top ten team? The only top ten TF team I can think of with part time (rotating) major sponsors is Leah Pritchet.

Highly doubtful as it's a known fact the Hemi doesn't work with the current rpm limiter.

OR just maybe MOPAR figured it out and is coming back just so NHRA can factor them out again.

Pizza anyone?

 

[Pete]

Pizza anyone?

If there was a part time pizza company sponsor onboard, I’d agree, but Papa Johns doesn’t sponsor Leah any longer

 

[Mike_in_Boston]

Why? Because you say so?

Hasn't Papa John sponsored Leah a couple of races this year?

He as an individual has, not the company.
