    6.17 The FULL Insider Story of The Great Charlotte Intake Manifold Controversy
    Apr 30 2024
    On this monologue style episode of the NHRA Insider Podcast, host Brian Lohnes takes you step by step through the crazy happenings on Saturday at the Charlotte 4-Wide Nationals involving Bob Tasca's team, the tech department, and what was determined to be an illegal intake manifold. It is a story with some interesting twists and turns, some truly big implications, and one that, at least in Lohnes's view, actually happened at the right time. This recounting of events takes us through the discovery of the problem which was revealed live on air to Lohnes and Tony Pedregon during the NHRA Insider LIVE, the ensuing social media craziness, why the intake was illegal, and how the whole thing shook out. This is not just a retelling of events, it is a breakdown on the hows and whys of everything that happened on that very interesting day. This is as insider as it gets.

    On this high-octane episode of the NHRA Insider Podcast, host Brian Lohnes is joined by National Dragster's Phil Burgess and Tony Pedregon to talk about the electric running of the Las Vegas 4-Wide Nationals as well as the upcoming Carolina 4-Wide Nationals this week. The conversation ranges from driver performances, driver attitudes, what a hole shot actually is, the process and procedures of top-end interviews for TV, and a whole lot more. There are flying sparks, hot takes, deep dives, and great analysis of the teams that are carrying the torches forward in their respective categories, those that are poised to break out, and who needs to get their act together coming into this second and final four wide contest. An entertaining and swift-moving show if there ever was one!

    Apr 17 2024
    On this episode of the NHRA Insider Podcast, host Brian Lohnes is joined by Jasmine Salinas, Bob Tasca, and Del Worsham to discuss the Las Vegas 4-Wide Nationals, growth, strategy, and how great teams get their cars back on track. Jasmine Salinas is the first guest on the show and a great conversation ensues about her early period in Top Fuel, what she has learned so far, how she has evolved as a racer, and how her competitive personality was formed in the sport of drag racing where she has dedicated so much of her time and effort for the last several years. Bob Tasca talks about his team's measured approach to the Vegas race, what they tested after the race, and how his relationship with his crew chiefs ultimately has lead to them having the fastest funny car in history and one of the most competitive in the NHRA. A high energy discussion! Finally, Del Worsham recounts his team's struggles, his own personal grief over the performance of the funny car he tunes, and how they committed themselves to righting their own ship which resulted in a car that went rounds in Phoenix and Las Vegas. It's an insightful crew chief chat. This is a jam packed episode with something for everyone!
