Video: Cruz Pedregon Announces Aaron Brooks To Become Crew Chief For Snap-On Funny Car

The NHRA silly season continues and yesterday some major news was made when Cruz Pedregon announced that he had hired Aaron Brooks to take the role of crew chief for the Snap-On funny car. Brooks has served as the crew chief for Richie Crampton on the Lucas Oil top fuel dragster over the last several seasons. Because that team has been disbanded, Brooks was a free agent and Pedregon talks about wasting no time in beginning the conversation with Brooks.

It took a little time to get the whole thing worked out but as you’ll hear Cruz tell it, the two men share much the same philosophy when it comes to running a nitro powered drag car and if you are a fan of nitro drag racing you know what that means. Neither Brooks nor Pedregon are fearful of putting a stout tune into a car if and when the situation calls for it.

The level of motivation between these two guys could not be higher. In many ways the two men had 2016 seasons that left them frustrated. Both the Lucas Oil car and the Snap-On car had moments of thundering brilliance but consistency eluded both cars and both men. These are two guys who will be showing up to Pomona ready to throw down and history has shown that they’re both capable of getting the job done at the highest levels.

This is the first time that Pedregon has had a dedicated crew chief since his last championship season when Rahn Tobler was the guy turning the screws. This is going to be one heck of a show and we can’t wait to see it.

    Great news for Cruz. Didn’t see Brooks going to Cruz. I was think DSR or Force, but what the hell do I know.

    I was hoping for Terry Mcmillan to add another top notch car to TF to the field.
