This is the 25th season as a nitro Funny Car driver for Tim Wilkerson, driver of the Levi, Ray & Shoup Ford Mustang. Wilkerson won the race at Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park in 2016 against John Force. He ran his career best E.T. here in 2017 [3.844]. He has won 47% of his 872 round of racing. After a two-year hiatus Alexis DeJoria opened the 2020 season in Pomona, advancing to the semifinals. Her first career Funny Car victory came here in 2014. She has won five of the seven round one races against Wilkerson. DeJoria is 6 - 3 against Wilkerson in prior events. Wilkerson gets off the line first and looks to be on a strong pass. He gets to right before the finish line and has his engine go bang! No oil on the track. DeJoria has the tires loose on her Camry early and lifts. Force will have lane choice next round. Tim Wilkerson's incremental times: 60ft-0.873 sec., 330ft-2.257, 660ft-3.187/274.55 mph. |
