Pro Stock racer Kyle Koretsky and Funny Car pilot J.R. Todd join host Brian Lohnes on this episode of the NHRA Insider podcast. The two racers are still chasing their first wins of the 2022 NHRA Camping World Drag Racing Series season, but their drive to compete is unabated. 

For Koretsky, the 2022 season sees him sitting third in the points and with one final-round appearance. He has been consistently going rounds week after week, and his KB-powered Lucas Oil Camaro has flirted with No. 1 qualifying positions as well. Koretsky talks about his driving, the work his team is putting in, and why they will succeed this year. Koretsky also talks about his family's purchase of Maple Grove Raceway in Pennsylvania and the amount of investment and work they are putting in to revamp and upgrade the iconic facility. This is an awesome story for drag racing. 

Todd talks about some frustrations in his team's work-to-success ratio but knows that the work will pay off through the second half of the regular season. The DHL GR Supra has made two semifinals this year and showed good promise in Epping. Todd talks about his love for all types of racing, his race routines, and the upcoming races at Bristol and Norwalk. 

A fun show and two great conversations!
