Team Marathon Petroleum Quick Facts, Race Stats, and Notes: AAA Insurance NHRA Midwest Nationals

GREENEVILLE, TN – Coming off a semifinal appearance at last weekend’s Dodge NHRA Nationals, Johnson heads to the Sixth annual AAA Insurance NHRA Midwest Nationals No. 7 in the Pro Stock points and is hoping to continue his upward swing in performance at Gateway Motorsports Park this weekend.

Quotable:
“I remember racing Jim Yates in the finals in 1999 and I got real close to the center line and got loose and I remember thinking I should’ve won that one,” Johnson reminisced. “I’ve been to the finals three times at Gateway Motorsports Park without winning and I think it’s about time we changed that.”
