Ron Capps’ 2024 NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series campaign was a steep learning curve in his third full-time season as a team owner of Ron Capps Motorsports.
“You always want to end the year on a good note,” Capps said. “It certainly gives you a little more confidence going into the offseason. But my big thing here, the silver lining is I’ve been watching our team continuously moving up in the points. We finished the year in third place, which is pretty darn awesome considering where we started.
“Whether we won the championship or not, we’ve always been very solid throughout the season. Our NAPA Auto Care team has been consistent. It’s great for me as a driver to get in and count on a great race car.
“To get these semifinals and finals like we’ve gone to, I’m very happy with everything. We’ve got a very strong team.”
“Obviously, we’d love to win a championship, but we’ll take all this and we’ve got some exciting things coming in the offseason,” Capps said. “We’ll get ready for the PRO Superstar Shootout and we’ll come out swinging.
“We started this year at the Shootout testing a lot of things, and I don’t think we’re going to be doing that this year. I want to go win that event. I know Guido does too.”
