Wilkerson Knows How to Win in Denver

Morrison, CO – Tim, reset the Bandimere Funny Car speed record during the 2022 event when he clocked a 329.18 mph pass.

Wilkerson talks about ‘the Mountain’, “I’m really looking forward to going to Denver. I won the first 1,000-foot race there in 2008, and would love to book end that by winning the last Mile-High Nationals trophy this weekend. It’s definitely a bitter sweet deal, but we will have Mr. Levi there from Levi, Ray & Shoup. He has a big hospitality there this year, and it’ll be great to see him and all his guests.”
