Ep. 336 | Alexis DeJoria

Alexis DeJoria started the NHRA Funny Car season in a brand-new environment with new people, resources, and cars around her. But as the NHRA Countdown has arrived, DeJoria explains how all the work has the JCM Racing team on the verge of something big; how scary it was to start over at this point in her career; seeing it all come together so quickly; how this compares to other changes in her career; what went into building the team chemistry away from the racetrack; what each side wants from the other; the amount of fun she’s had this year; outlook on the Countdown and realistic expectations; having three straight races to start the postseason; having a four-wide race in the Countdown for the first time; chasing a championship before the end of her career; the evolution of the Funny Car class and competition; hopes to end the season.    Original music created by Tony Monge. Follow me here: https://linktr.ee/kellycrandall  PRE-ORDER: NASCAR Race Day Eats https://insighteditions.com/products/nascar-race-day-eats  Alexis DeJoria feature story: https://racer.com/2021/07/27/insight-dejorias-second-act
