DEJORIA LOOKING TO CONTINUE GREAT PERFOAMCE AT WINTERNATIONALS

Pomona, CA – One day after winning the inaugural Mission #2Fast2Tasty Funny Car Challenge in Phoenix, DeJoria powered to a semifinal finish from the No. 2 spot to earn her second consecutive berth into the next Mission Foods-backed specialty race.  That race will be contested on Saturday DeJoria will race Ron Capps as her first-round opponent.

Alexis has advanced to back-to-back semifinal appearances to start the season, and currently sits fourth in the point standings.  In 2014, DeJoria became the first female Funny Car driver to clock a sub-four second run (3.997 seconds) during qualifying at the Pomona 1 event
DeJoria, a former SoCal resident, was first introduced to NHRA Drag Racing when she came out to the Pomona track with friends as a teenager.

“Coming off of two semifinal finishes, to say I’m looking forward to Pomona would be an understatement. Our Bandero GR Supra is running so well, and we’re qualified for another Mission #2Fast2Tasty Challenge. The weather conditions are going to be really cool, so there should be some incredibly quick passes this weekend,” exclaimed DeJoria!
