Like a lot of racers this winter, I had to get a new helmet due to my SA2010 helmet expiring. For Christmas, Ben Holt got me this Simpson Race Products helmet, and had Travis Hess put this mind-blowingly awesome paint job on it. Travis is one of those people with a skill set so awesome, I can't even begin to understand how he gets it from A to B. I'm just so happy he was able to squeeze it into his busy schedule. Thanks so much Ben Holt and Travis Hess!!!!!

Tight 1st Round loss to Matt Harris. We went 6.66et at 200mph...but not enough to chase him down. Good comp race....4-cylinder turbo dragster vs a 6-cylinder door car.

Andrew Holt Q2 Indy 2021 6.52et 201mph

We put our car on the pole with an awesome 6.52 at 201mph run. Pretty cool to put it at the top at the biggest race of the year. Some glitches knocked us out of racing in the second round...but it was a pretty good race for our car. Ben and Dad are really getting the this car working great....and special thanks to Chris Danison for being our Super Crew this week.

Jim qualified 5th with a 8.56et....and then after an all night engine swap he got beat in the 3rd round by the eventual runner up Jimmy Daniels. It was a big deal the car was even ready to race on Friday.. and Jim made a great race of it! All in all a good Indy 2021!

We can't quite put together a full weekend yet....but we have our moments. This round one win was cool to take with us. Off to Lucas Oil Raceway for the US Nationals.

Ben Holt and I Went to the 3rd Race of the NHRA North Central Division 3 schedule at Lucas Oil Raceway last weekend. Our turbo car is finally starting to haul the mail after a few engine issues we had to sort out to start this year. Went a 6.74, 6.68, and a 6.62 in a second round win (Our first non-red light win ever in Comp). Looking forward to some good racing the rest of the year with this car!
