David Barton joined NHRA reporter Lewis Bloom via Skype in the Wally Parks NHRA Studio delivered by Papa John’s to talk about his 2017 SAM Tech Factory Stock Showdown championship. 

By defeating Chuck Watson in the first round of the Showdown at the AAA Insurance Midwest Nationals, Barton became the first Factory Stock Showdown champion. Barton won two Showdown races this season driving the Wolkowitz Racing COPO Camaro, in Gainesville and Indy. Barton spoke about the Championship, his love of the new cars, and the expansion of the Factory Stock Showdown schedule for 2018.

The SAM Tech NHRA Factory Stock Showdown is designed to showcase competition between Chevrolet COPO Camaro, Ford Mustang Cobra Jet and the Dodge Mopar Challenger Drag Pak entries. The series has seen increased car counts at races across the country and rabid interest from fans of the series.
