NHRA® Team Report
NHRA Nationals – Indianapolis
Pre-Race Report
"It's the biggest race of the year and the most prestigious. I've been fortunate to win it three times, so to win a fourth time would put me in some elite company and we have the car to do it," Cruz says. "The Snap-on® Dodge® SRT® Hellcat® is certainly one of the cars to beat on the circuit, and I'm proud of that. It's been a lot of work, and our sponsors have been great. They've enabled me to put together the team we have here now. I can't say enough about what they've meant to my career, and we have a lot to look forward to."
Cruz says Indy really sets the tone for the playoffs, as the points-and-a-half will help even the field and set the stage for the Countdown. He believes the team has a good shot to get into the top five, which he says is the team's goal. The Snap-on Franchise paint scheme is sidelined for now, so Cruz will be racing the primary Snap-on® “Makers and Fixers” Dodge SRT Hellcat Funny Car body better known to the team as "Gato Loco.”
