Chandler, AZ – Johnny Ahten is anxious and ready to light the nitro for the NHRA LORDS Regional at the revamped Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park this weekend. A few weeks have passed since the opening event in Pomona, and Johnny and crew chief Al Ahten have analyzed the tuning data, the car, and the tune-up. They are bringing with them a melody of confidence and hunger. Their new-found poise comes from quick time slips, feedback from the seat-back, and enlightening computer data. The taste for wins comes from last year’s Wally grab at the NHRA Finals at Pomona. This double-pronged attack has Johnny and the Stump Puller ready to tear up the quarter mile.
“Since the debut of the new wrap in Seattle last year it’s like we have a new car,” said Johnny Ahten. “We were the #1 qualifier in Seattle and went to the final round. Along the way we have solved some issues and had some breakthroughs. Then the Pomona Finals win capped it off. Now every race we go to we know we are capable of winning. The bonus is we didn’t hurt any parts at the Winternationals. We just have to calm the car down a bit - in order to speed it up. Our goal this weekend is to add to the trophy case,” added Ahten.
Johnny and the Stump Puller will be flying down the track on Thursday for some test runs. A national event was just held at the track so the Island Renovations / Combust Filters Team are looking forward to a thick coat of rubber on the new surface. Johnny, along with Al & Bob Ahten, Howard Katano, Kevin Colvell, and Chuck Costabile are looking to make some waves in the desert climate of Arizona. A few test runs will provide track data, Regional rivalries will offer stiff competition, and Ahten Racings’ confidence and hunger will present the opportunity for a thrilling weekend at the drags.
