The 28-year-old dragster driver says, 'the best place to be is where expectations are high.'
Published: Jun 28, 2023Justin Ashley is leading the NHRA Top Fuel points championship after a runner-up finish at Norwalk, Ohio, by a whopping 97 points over runner-up and four-time champion Steve Torrence.
What's really special is Ashley's run to the top of the Top Fuel charts so early in his NHRA career. He's looking more and more like a driver ready to take up the mantle from a rather short list recent Top Fuel champions.In the past six years, just two drivers have held the NHRA Top Fuel championship trophy—defending-champion Brittany Force and Steve Torrence .
Ashley's fast track started in Junior Dragsters when he was 11. From there, he went through Top Dragster and into the Top Alcohol class before moving up to the. He went on to win the NHRA Rookie of the Year in his first full year in 2020—a year that netted his first career win in the class at Indianapolis Raceway Park.
